    摘要: A method of forming a titanium nitride layer by an atomic layer deposition process using a batch-type vertical reaction furnace is described wherein a first source gas including a titanium precursor is provided onto substrates loaded in a process chamber for a first time period; a first purge gas is introduced into the process chamber for a second time period shorter than the first time period; a second source gas including nitrogen is provided onto the substrates for a third time period substantially identical to the first time period; and, a second purge gas is introduced into the process chamber for a fourth time period substantially identical to the second time period. Titanium nitride layers having uniform thickness and good step coverage may thus be formed while realizing a greatly reduced manufacturing time.

    摘要: A method of forming titanium nitride layers by an atomic layer deposition process using a batch-type vertical reaction furnace is described wherein the titanium nitride layers are formed on one or more substrates in accordance with a reaction between a first source gas including TiCl4 gas and a second source gas including an NH3 gas. After forming the titanium nitride layers, chlorine remaining in the titanium nitride layers is removed using a treatment gas which includes an NH3 gas. The substrates are revolved by a predetermined rotation angle between repeated titanium nitride layer formation cycles. The process of forming the titanium nitride layers and rotating the substrates is alternately repeated resulting in titanium nitride layers having substantially uniform thicknesses and low specific resistance.

    摘要: In this etching method, since an etching gas is introduced before introduction of free radicals into a processing chamber, the etching gas has been adsorbed on the surface of substrates when the free radicals are introduced. Accordingly, the free radicals react with the etching gas adsorbed on the surface of the substrates, and the reaction proceeds uniformly on the surface of the substrate. As a result, nonuniform etching does not occur on the surface of the substrate. Moreover, since the reaction between the etching gas and the free radicals occurs on the surface of the substrate, an intermediate product produced according to the reaction between the etching gas and the free radicals reacts with an etching object promptly. Therefore, the intermediate product is not exhausted from the processing chamber 12 excessively, and hence the etching efficiency is high. As a result, according to this etching method, not only the in-plane distribution of the etching amount becomes more uniform, but also the etching rate is increased more than in the conventional etching method.

    摘要: In a method of forming a conductive pattern structure of a semiconductor device, a first insulating interlayer is formed on a substrate. A first wiring is formed to pass through the first insulating interlayer. An etch stop layer and a second insulating interlayer are sequentially formed on the first insulating interlayer. A second wiring is formed to pass through the second insulating interlayer and the etch stop layer. A dummy pattern is formed to pass through the second insulating layer and the etch stop layer at the same time as forming the second wiring. The second wiring is electrically connected to the first wiring. The dummy pattern is electrically isolated from the second wiring.
