摘要:
In a method and an apparatus for forming metal oxide on a substrate, a source gas including metal precursor flows along a surface of the substrate to form a metal precursor layer on the substrate. An oxidizing gas including ozone flows along a surface of the metal precursor layer to oxidize the metal precursor layer so that the metal oxide is formed on the substrate. A radio frequency power is applied to the oxidizing gas flowing along the surface of the metal precursor layer to accelerate a reaction between the metal precursor layer and the oxidizing gas. Acceleration of the oxidation reaction may improve electrical characteristics and uniformity of the metal oxide.

Example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method of forming a dielectric thin film and a method of fabricating a semiconductor memory device having the same. Other example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method of forming a ZrO2 thin film and a method of fabricating a capacitor of a semiconductor memory device using the ZrO2 thin film as a dielectric layer. A method of forming a ZrO2 thin film may include supplying a zirconium precursor on a substrate maintained at a desired temperature, thereby forming a chemisorption layer of the precursor on the substrate. The zirconium precursor may be a tris(N-ethyl-N-methylamino)(tert-butoxy) zirconium precursor. The substrate having the chemisorption layer of the precursor may be exposed to the plasma atmosphere of oxygen-containing gas for a desired time, thereby forming a Zr oxide layer on the substrate, and a method of fabricating a capacitor of a semiconductor memory device having the ZrO2 thin film.

A method of forming a semiconductor device may include forming a first conductive metal compound layer on a substrate using a metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process and/or forming a second conductive metal compound layer on the first conductive metal compound layer using a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process.
