摘要:
A processing apparatus is disclosed which is capable of switching supplies of a raw material gas and a reducing gas alternately, while continuously forming a plasma of the reducing gas. An excitation device (12) excites a reducing gas supplied thereinto, and the excited reducing gas is supplied into a process chamber (2). A switching mechanism (20) is arranged between the excitation device (12) and the process chamber (2), and a bypass line (22) is connected to the switching mechanism (20). The switching mechanism (20) switches the flow of the excited reducing gas from the excitation device (12) between the process chamber (2) and the bypass line (22).
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 chamber having an approximately triangular transverse cross section is provided with a gas supply opening at its one side, and is provided with an exhaust opening at a vertex facing the one side. Further, the gas supply opening is provided with a showerhead-like gas supply section. Based on this configuration, the chamber is structured such that a cross-sectional area of a gas flow passage formed from the gas supply opening to the exhaust opening gradually decreases toward a direction of gas supply. At this time, a thickness of a boundary layer formed on a wall of the chamber becomes substantially constant.
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.
