    摘要: A film fabrication method for forming a film over a substrate in a processing chamber includes a first film formation process and a second film formation process. In the first film formation process, (a) a first step of supplying a first source gas containing a metal-organic compound and without containing a halogen element into the chamber and then removing the first source gas from the chamber, and (b) a second step of supplying a second source gas containing hydrogen or a hydrogen compound into the chamber and then removing the second source gas from the chamber, are repeated a predetermined number of times. In the second film formation process, (c) a third step of supplying a third source gas containing a metal halide compound into the chamber and then removing the third gas from the chamber, and (d) a fourth step of supplying a plasma-activated fourth source gas containing hydrogen or a hydrogen compound into the chamber and then removing the fourth source gas from the chamber, are repeated a predetermined number of times.

    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).
