摘要:
An etching method of the present invention includes a first and a second process. In the first process, pattern widths of a pre-patterned mask layer are increased by depositing plasma reaction products on sidewalls of the mask layer. In the second process, a layer to be etched is etched by using the mask layer as a mask having increased the pattern widths. Therefore, mask layers having different pattern densities exist in the same wafer and pattern widths of mask layers patterned through a photolithography process are uneven according to pattern densities, each pattern width of the mask layers can be made uniform. Accordingly, the pattern widths of the layer can be made uniform over an entire wafer.
摘要:
A tungsten silicide layer (104) is etched by plasma etching using Cl2+O2 gas as etching gas. When etching of the tungsten silicide layer (104) is ended substantially, etching gas is switched to Cl2+O2+NF3 and over etching is performed by plasma etching. Etching process is ended under a state where a polysilicon layer (103) formed beneath the tungsten silicide layer (104) is slightly etched uniformly. Residual quantity of the polysilicon layer (103) can be made uniform as compared with prior art and a high quality semiconductor device can be fabricated stably.

A substrate processing method includes performing a deposition process of depositing a thin film on the substrate while depressurizing the inside of the processing chamber and introducing the gas thereinto; and, while the deposition process is being performed, irradiating light, which is transmitted through a monitoring window installed at the processing chamber, toward the inside of the processing chamber through the monitoring window, and monitoring a reflection light intensity of reflection light by receiving the reflection light through the monitoring window. The substrate processing method further includes measuring a temporal variation in the reflection light intensity during the deposition process and calculating a termination time of the deposition process based on a measurement value of the temporal variation; and terminating the deposition process by setting the termination time as an end point of the deposition process.
