摘要:
A manufacturing method for a semiconductor device, that loads a substrate on which a film containing oxygen atoms, chlorine atoms, and metal atoms is formed into a processing chamber so as to be supported by a substrate support part. The substrate is heated by the substrate support part. The inside of the processing chamber is exhausted by a gas exhaust part while supplying nitrogen atoms-containing gas and hydorgen atoms-containing gas into the processing chamber by a gas supply part. A plasma generation part is then used to excite the nitrogen atoms-containing gas and the hydrogen atoms-containing gas supplied into the processing chamber.

摘要:
A technique capable of improving the memory retention characteristics of a non-volatile memory is provided. In particular, a technique of fabricating a non-volatile semiconductor memory device is provided capable of enhancing the film quality of a silicon oxide film even when a silicon oxide film as a first potential barrier film is formed with a plasma oxidation method to improve the memory retention characteristics of the non-volatile memory. After a silicon oxide film, which is a main component of a first potential barrier film, is formed with a plasma oxidation method, plasma nitridation at a high temperature and a heat treatment in an atmosphere containing nitric oxide are performed in combination, thereby forming a silicon oxynitride film on the surface of the silicon oxide film, and segregating nitrogen to an interface between the silicon oxide film and a semiconductor substrate.
