    摘要: A vapor-phase growth system able to avoid fluctuation of the heating performance of a heater during repeated growth processes is provided. This system includes a reactor, a substrate holder for holding a substrate, and a heater for heating the substrate held by the holder. The holder and the heater are placed in an inner space of the reactor. The holder and the substrate held by the holder divide an inner space of the reactor to thereby form a growth chamber in which a thin film is grown during a growth process and a heater chamber in which the heater is placed. The holder has a supporting member on which the substrate is placed. At least a part of the member is made of the same material as that of the thin film. The supporting member is made of a SOI substrate.

    摘要: In a method for forming a capacitor, after preparing a substrate having at least one device area thereon, an amorphous silicon film containing one type of dopant is formed on the device area. A mask layer comprising mask islands is formed and distributed on a surface of the amorphous silicon film. The surface of the amorphous silicon is dry-etched by using the mask layer as a selective etching mask to produce a jagged surface having a lot of protrusions. After forming the jagged surface, the amorphous silicon film is changed into a polycrystalline silicon film serving as a storage electrode. Finally, a dielectric film and then another storage electrode are formed sequentially on the jagged surface of the storage electrode.

Thus, it is possible to get rid of contamination caused by heavy metals in the silicon semiconductor substrate.

    摘要: On treating a substrate surface of a single crystal silicon substrate, Ge ions are preliminarily implanted into the substrate surface to be formed as a Ge-implanted silicon film on the single crystal silicon substrate. A film surface of Ge-implanted silicon film is treated by oxidizing the film surface to form a spontaneous oxide film. Subsequently, the spontaneous oxide film is subjected to a heat treatment in a reduced-pressure atmosphere to remove the spontaneous oxide film. Alternatively, the spontaneous oxide film is subjected to a heat treatment with a reducing gas of, for example, a hydrogen gas, a silane-based gas, or a GeH.sub.4 gas supplied onto the spontaneous oxide film to remove the spontaneous oxide film. Preferably, the Ge ions are preliminarily implanted into the substrate surface to be formed as Ge-implanted silicon film which consists, in atomic percent, essentially of at least 1% Ge.

    摘要: A fabrication method of a semiconductor device with an IGFET is provided, which makes it possible to decrease the current leakage due to electrical short-circuit between a gate electrode and source/drain regions of the IGFET through conductive grains deposited on its dielectric sidewalls. After the basic structure of the IGFET is formed, first and second single-crystal Si epitaxial layers are respectively formed on the first and second source/drain regions by a selective epitaxial growth process. Then, the surface areas of the first and second single-crystal Si epitaxial layers are oxidized, and the oxidized surface areas of the first and second single-crystal Si epitaxial layers are removed by etching. If unwanted grains of poly-Si or amorphous Si are grown on the first and second dielectric sidewalls in the selective epitaxial growth process, the unwanted grains are oxidized and removed, thereby preventing electrical short-circuit from occurring between the gate electrode and the first and second source/drain regions through the unwanted grains deposited on the first and second dielectric sidewalls.
