Method of manufacturing a silicon oxide film

摘要

A method of manufacturing a silicon oxide film by using a film deposition apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a turntable including a substrate receiving part on its upper surface, a first gas supply part to supply a first gas to the turntable in a first process area, and a second gas supply part arranged in a second process area apart from the first process area to supply a second gas. In the method, a silicon-containing gas is supplied from the first gas supply part as the first gas. A hydrogen gas and an oxidation gas are supplied from the second gas supply part as the second gas. The first gas is caused to adsorb on the substrate in the first process area, and the second gas is caused to react with the first gas adsorbed on the substrate in the second process area while rotating the turntable.

主权项

1. A method of manufacturing a silicon oxide film, the method comprising steps of:
loading a substrate on an upper surface of a turntable provided in a chamber, wherein the turntable includes a plurality of substrate receiving parts arranged along the circumferential direction thereof; supplying a silicon-containing gas as a first gas to a first process area provided above the turntable; generating hydroxyl radicals by supplying hydrogen gas and oxidation gas as a second gas to a second process area provided above the turntable and heating the substrate up to a predetermined temperature in a range where the hydroxyl radicals can be generated from hydrogen gas and oxidation gas before the second gas reaches the substrate while supplying the first gas to the first process area; rotating the turntable so as cause the substrate to alternately pass through the first process area and the second process area; causing the first gas to adsorb on the substrate on the upper surface of the turntable in the first process area while rotating the turntable; and causing the second gas supplied to the second process area to react with the first gas adsorbed on the substrate in the second process area while rotating the turntable, wherein the step of causing the first gas to adsorb on the substrate and the step of causing the second gas to react with the first gas adsorbed on the substrate are performed on a plurality of substrates placed on the plurality of substrate receiving parts, respectively, in sequence.
