The present invention relates to a method of lowering dielectric constant of an insulating film including Si, O and CH formed by a chemical vapor deposition process. A process gas containing hydrogen atoms is supplied into a reaction vessel. A microwave is introduced into the reaction vessel to supply a uniform electromagnetic wave, thereby a plasma containing a hydrogen radical is generated in the reaction vessel. The structure of the insulating film is modified by the hydrogen radical contained in the plasma irradiated to the insulating film, lowering the dielectric constant of the film. The microwave is supplied into the reaction vessel through a radial-slot antenna.

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes steps of: (a) forming a thin film containing a phenyl group and silicon on a substrate while obtaining a plasma by activating an organic silane gas containing a phenyl group and silicon and nitrogen as not original component but unavoidable impurity and exposing the substrate to the plasma, temperature of the substrate being set at 200° C. or lower; and (b) obtaining a low-permittivity film by supplying energy to the substrate to allow moisture to be released from the thin film. With this method for manufacturing the semiconductor device, it is possible to obtain a silicon-oxide based low-permittivity film containing an organic substance which is not significantly damaged by the release of the organic substance when subjected to a plasma treatment such as an etching treatment, an ashing treatment, and/or the like.

A method for forming a porous insulating film includes an insulating film forming step and a hole forming step. During the insulating film forming step, plasma processing of an organic siloxane group compound and an organic compound having a polar group forms an insulating film having a siloxane structure. Molecules of the organic compound having a polar group are contained within this siloxane structure. During the hole forming step, excitation gas removes molecules of the organic compound having a polar group to provide holes in the insulating film. According to this method, an insulating film with a predetermined thickness and holes formed uniformly in the thickness direction can be obtained.
