    摘要: A plasma doping method that can control a dose precisely is realized. In-plane uniformity of the dose is improved. It has been found that, if a bias is applied by irradiating B2H6/He plasma onto a silicon substrate, there is a time at which a dose of boron is made substantially uniform, and the saturation time is comparatively long and ease to stably use, compared with a time at which repeatability of an apparatus control can be secured. The invention has been finalized focusing on the result. That is, if plasma irradiation starts, a dose is initially increased, but a time at which the dose is made substantially uniform without depending on a time variation is continued. In addition, if the time is further increased, the dose is decreased. The dose can be accurately controlled through a process window of the time at which the dose is made substantially uniform without depending on the time variation.

    摘要: Disclosed is a plasma doping method that, even though a plasma doping treatment is repeated, can make a dose from a film to a silicon substrate uniform for each time. According to an embodiment of the invention, there is provided a plasma doping method that places a sample on a sample electrode in a vacuum chamber, generates plasma in the vacuum chamber, and causes impurity ions in the plasma to collide against a surface of the sample so as to form an impurity doped layer in the surface of the sample. The plasma doping method includes a maintenance step of preparing the vacuum chamber having a film containing an impurity formed on an inner wall thereof such that, when the film containing the impurity fixed to the inner wall of the vacuum chamber is attacked by ions in the plasma, the amount of an impurity to be doped into the surface of the sample by sputtering is not changed even though the plasma containing the impurity ions is repeatedly generated in the vacuum chamber, a step of placing the sample on the sample electrode, and a step of irradiating the plasma containing the impurity ions so as to implant the impurity ions into the sample, and doping the impurity into the sample by sputtering from the film containing the impurity fixed to the inner wall of the vacuum chamber.
