摘要:
A layer deposition method includes: feeding a reactant with a first flow of an inert gas as a carrier gas into a reaction chamber to chemisorb the reactant on a substrate; feeding the first flow of the inert gas to purge the reaction chamber and a first reactant feed line; and feeding the second flow of the inert gas into the reaction chamber through a feed line different from the first reactant feed line.

Disclosed are a method for cleaning a deposition chamber by removing attached metal oxides, and a deposition apparatus for performing in situ cleaning. A first gas and a second gas are provided into the deposition chamber. The first gas is reacted with metal included in the metal oxide to generate reacting residues. The second gas then decomposes the reacting residues, and the decomposed residues are exhausted out of the chamber. Thus, this cleaning process can be rapidly accomplished while the deposition chamber is not opened or separated from a deposition apparatus.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method for forming a multi-layered structure having at least two films on a semiconductor substrate. The substrate is disposed on a thermally conductible stage for supporting the substrate. After the distance between the stage and the substrate is adjusted to a first interval so that the substrate has a first temperature by heat transferred from the stage, a first thin film is formed on the substrate at the first temperature. The distance is then adjusted from the first interval to a second interval so that the substrate reaches a second temperature, and then a second thin film is formed on the first thin film at the second temperature, thereby forming the multi-layered structure on the substrate. The multi-layered structure can be employed for a gate insulation film or the dielectric film of a capacitor.
