FILM FORMATION METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SEMICONDUCTOR PROCESS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM

摘要

A film formation process is performed to form a silicon nitride film on a target substrate within a process field configured to be selectively supplied with a first process gas containing a silane family gas and a second process gas containing a nitriding gas. The method is preset to compose the film formation process of a main stage with an auxiliary stage set at one or both of beginning and ending of the film formation process. The main stage includes an excitation period of supplying the second process gas to the process field while exciting the second process gas by an exciting mechanism. The auxiliary stage includes no excitation period of supplying the second process gas to the process field while exciting the second process gas by the exciting mechanism.
