Electro-optical apparatus and method for fabricating a film, semiconductor device and memory device at near atmospheric pressure

摘要

A method to deposit insulating, semiconducting, and conducting films at pressures close to the atmospheric pressure and at temperatures less than 500° C. is provided. In this method, noble gas is mixed with reactant gas, and electric energy is applied to produce plasma at pressure substantially close to atmospheric pressure. The process can be applied to deposit films such as silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, silicon, and metal films.
