    摘要: Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for processing a wafer in manufacturing a semiconductor device and a method and an apparatus for etching a material formed on the wafer, wherein first and second cooling parts adjust an ambient temperature near a plurality of wafers to a first temperature, the wafers are processed by introducing a reaction gas at the first temperature, then, a heating part rapidly raises the temperature of the atmosphere near the wafers from the first temperature to the second temperature to partially separate by-products produced during the processing, the second temperature is maintained to separate most of the by-products from the wafers, and the processing steps are implemented in-situ within the same space. Accordingly, a native oxide layer formed on several wafers can be etched and the reaction by-products can be removed in-situ in the same chamber so productivity is improved.

    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.
