摘要:
A sidewall spacer film or the like is removed without damaging a device structure section. Specifically disclosed is a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, which comprises a step of forming a first thin film composed of GeCOH or GeCH on a substrate (21) to be processed, a step of removing a part of the first thin film and obtaining a remaining portion (30), and a processing step of performing a certain process on the substrate (21) through the space formed by removing the first thin film.
摘要:
A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes: forming a sidewall spacer on a sidewall surface of a gate electrode; forming a pair of second conductive type source and drain regions in an active region; covering top surfaces of a semiconductor layer, a device isolation region, the sidewall spacer and the gate electrode with a metal film; reducing resistance of the source and drain regions and the gate electrode partially by making the metal film react with the semiconductor layer and the gate electrode; and removing an unreacted portion of the metal film and the sidewall spacer simultaneously by using an etchant which readily etches the unreacted portion of the metal film and the sidewall spacer while hardly etching the device isolation region, resistance-reduced portions of the gate electrode and resistance-reduced portions of the source and drain regions.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for depositing a TERA film having tunable optical and etch resistant properties on a substrate using a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition process, wherein for at least a part of the deposition of the TERA film, the plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition process employs a precursor that reduces reaction with a photoresist. The apparatus includes a chamber having an upper electrode coupled to a first RF source and a substrate holder coupled to a second RF source; and a showerhead for providing multiple process and precursor gasses.
摘要:
Provided is a control device of an evaporating apparatus performing a film forming process on a substrate with a film forming material evaporated from a vapor deposition source, and a storage of the control device stores a plurality of tables each showing a relationship between a deposition rate and a flow rate of a carrier gas. A table selection unit selects a desired table from the plurality of tables stored in the storage based on a processing condition. A deposition controller calculates a deposition rate based on a signal outputted from a QCM. A carrier gas controller controls the flow rate of the carrier gas to obtain a desired deposition rate based on a difference between a target deposition rate and the deposition rate obtained by the deposition controller, with reference to data indicating the relationship between the deposition rate and the flow rate of the carrier gas.
