摘要： A method is disclosed for forming an aluminum oxide film on a semiconductor device. In a process of depositing an aluminum oxide film by atomic layer deposition method using TMA (trimethyl aluminum; Al(CH3)3) as an aluminum source and H2O as an oxygen reaction gas, the disclosed method supplies a NH3 reaction gas at the same time when an aluminum source is supplied. Therefore, it can increase the growth rate of an aluminum oxide film and can also improve the characteristic of preventing penetration of hydrogen into an underlying layer or a semiconductor substrate. Thus, the disclosed method can prevent degradation in a charge storage characteristic in a capacitor and lower in an electrical characteristic of various elements, thus improving an overall characteristic of a semiconductor device.

摘要： There is disclosed a method of making a high dielectric capacitor of a semiconductor device using Ta2O5, BST((Ba1−xSrx)TiO3) etc. of a high dielectric characteristic as a capacitor dielectric film in a very high integrated memory device. The present invention has its object to provide a method of manufacturing a high dielectric capacitor of a semiconductor device, which can effectively remove carbon contained within the thin film after deposition of the BST film and defects of oxygen depletion caused upon deposition of the thin film and which can also remove carbon contained within the thin film after deposition of the tantalum oxide film and defects of oxygen depletion caused upon deposition of the thin film, without further difficult processes or without any deterioration of the electrical characteristic of the capacitor. It employs the technology which is able to effectively removing defects of carbon and oxygen depletion within the thin film, by forming a plasma O3 gas having a good reactivity and by processing the plasma for the BST thin film and tantalum oxide film. Thus, it can extend the lifetime of the activated oxygen of oxygen, which had been a problem in processing a conventional UV-O3, by means of plasma process using O3 gas. Therefore, it can effectively remove defects of carbon and oxygen within the BST thin film and tantalum oxide film without complicating the process or deteriorating the electrical characteristic of the capacitor. The present invention also proposes a detailed process condition, which can optimize the plasma process using O3 gas.
