Method of Manufacturing a Semiconductor Device Using a Radical Oxidation Process

摘要

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a polysilicon layer doped with impurities is formed on a front side and a backside of a substrate. An insulation layer is formed on the substrate having the polysilicon layer to cover the polysilicon layer on the backside of the substrate. The insulation layer on the front side of the substrate is partially etched to partially expose the front side of the substrate. An oxidation process using oxygen radicals is then carried out to form an oxide layer on the exposed front side of the substrate Thus, when the oxidation process is carried out, the insulation layer prevents impurities in the polysilicon layer on the backside of the substrate from being outgassed. As a result electrical characteristics of the transistor formed on the front side of the substrate may not be deteriorated.
