    摘要: Disclosed is a plasma nitriding method by which an ultra-thin oxide-nitride film having a half-value depth of not greater than 0.8 nm can be produced, overcoming various inconveniences involved in conventional plasma nitriding methods. In one preferred form of the present invention, the plasma nitriding method includes the steps of introducing a substrate to be processed, into a reaction chamber, evacuating the reaction chamber, supplying a gas containing nitrogen atoms, into the reaction chamber at a predetermined flow rate, adjusting an exhaust conductance to maintain a predetermined pressure inside the reaction chamber, and applying an electric voltage into the reaction chamber to produce plasma to thereby cause nitriding of the surface of the substrate, wherein the gas further contains hydrogen atoms, wherein the predetermined pressure is not less than 2 Torr, and wherein a spacing between the substrate and a densest portion of the plasma is not less than 75 nm.

    摘要: Disclosed is a plasma processing apparatus and a plasma processing method, by which ions of plasma can be injected uniformly over the whole surface of a substrate to be processed, in a short time. Specifically, when the substrate is processed in a reaction container, the gas pressure inside the reaction container is increased. Alternatively, the distance between a plasma processing portion and the substrate is enlarged, or the substrate is temporally moved outwardly of the reaction container. As a further alternative, a shutter is disposed between the plasma producing zone and the substrate. With this procedure, incidence of ions of the plasma upon the substrate can be substantially intercepted for a predetermined time period from the start of plasma production.
