    摘要: In a processing apparatus which performs a film deposition by alternately supplying a plurality of source gases, the source gases are prevented from reacting within an exhaust pipe so as to prevent the exhaust pipe from clogging due to a reaction by-product. A gas supply to a processing container is switched between a TiCl4 supply system and a NH3 supply system. Additionally, a gas exhaust from the processing container is switched between a TiCl4 exhaust system and a NH3 exhaust system. The gas exhaust is switched to the TiCl4 exhaust system when the gas supply is switched to the TiCl4 supply system, and the gas exhaust is switched to the NH3 exhaust system when the gas supply is switched to the NH3 supply system. The switching is performed by a stop valve provided to each of the supply system and the exhaust system.

    摘要: In a processing apparatus, a process gas including a source gas (TiCl4, NH3) and an inert gas (N2) is supplied into a process chamber (2). A pressure meter (6) detects a pressure in the process chamber (2) so as to control an amount of flow of the process gas supplied to the process chamber (2) based on a result of the detection. A source gas is purged by the inert gas. By maintaining the amount of flow of the source gas constant and controlling the amount of flow of the inert gas, an amount of flow the entire process gas is controlled so as to maintain a pressure in the process chamber (2) constant. Since a time spent on evacuation of the source gas is reduced, a time for switching the source gas is reduced. Additionally, a temperature of a surface of a substrate during processing can be maintained constant.

    摘要: A method of rapidly forming a thin film of high quality through film formation by alternate feeding of raw gases. In particular, a method of forming a TiN thin film, comprising repeating operations including causing TiCl4 gas as a raw gas to be adsorbed on a substrate or TiCl4 molecules adsorbed on a substrate and feeding NH3 gas as a reactant gas in a treating chamber so as to effect reaction of TiCl4 and NH3 leading to formation of a TiN film, which method further comprises an operation of, prior to the adsorption of TiCl4 gas on the substrate, feeding reducing H2 gas in the treating chamber (30) so as to change TiCl4 to a state of enhanced likelihood of adsorption on the substrate (e.g., TiCl3).

    摘要: The ceiling surface (12b) of a chamber (12) is substantially entirely formed with a gas supply port (19). Further, the gas supply port (19) has shower head (20) fitted therein. The peripheral edge of the ceiling surface (12b) has connected thereto a second side wall (12d) forming an angle greater than 90 degrees with ceiling surface (12b). Further, the side surface of a susceptor (16) is formed such that it forms an angle greater than 90 degrees with a mounting surface for a wafer (W) and is substantially parallel with the second side wall (12d) of the chamber (12). Further, the susceptor (16) is disposed such that the distance (L2) between its side surface and the second side wall (12d) is greater than the distance (L1) between the shower head (20) and the wafer (W).

    摘要: A chamber having an approximately triangular transverse cross section is provided with a gas supply opening at its one side, and is provided with an exhaust opening at a vertex facing the one side. Further, the gas supply opening is provided with a showerhead-like gas supply section. Based on this configuration, the chamber is structured such that a cross-sectional area of a gas flow passage formed from the gas supply opening to the exhaust opening gradually decreases toward a direction of gas supply. At this time, a thickness of a boundary layer formed on a wall of the chamber becomes substantially constant.
