    摘要: After a processing chamber is used to deposit a refractory metal film on a substrate, the chamber is plasma-treated with a gas including either nitrogen and/or hydrogen and in-situ cleaned. By plasma-treating the chamber with a gas including nitrogen, the refractory metal film that forms on interior surfaces of the chamber during substrate processing is nitrided. The nitrided refractory metal film can be removed from the chamber during the in-situ cleaning. By plasma-treating the chamber with a gas including hydrogen, reaction by-products generated in the chamber is diluted removed. The chamber may be plasma-treated in a gas ambient including both nitrogen and hydrogen. Also, the plasma treatment may be performed before and after the in-situ cleaning.

    摘要: In an ohmic layer and methods of forming the ohmic layer, a gate structure including the ohmic layer and a metal wiring having the ohmic layer, the ohmic layer is formed using tungsten silicide that includes tungsten and silicon with an atomic ratio within a range of about 1:5 to about 1:15. The tungsten silicide may be obtained in a chamber using a reaction gas including a tungsten source gas and a silicon source gas by a partial pressure ratio within a range of about 1.0:25.0 to about 1.0:160.0. The reaction gas may have a partial pressure within a range of about 2.05 percent to about 30.0 percent of a total internal pressure of the chamber. When the ohmic layer is employed for a conductive structure, such as a gate structure or a metal wiring, the conductive structure may have a reduced resistance.
