Abstract:
Disclosed are a substrate processing apparatus and a method of cleaning the apparatus. The apparatus includes a process chamber, a support unit in the process chamber and configured to support a substrate, and a gas injection unit in the process chamber. The gas injection unit includes a first injection portion configured to inject a source gas, a second injection portion facing the first injection portion and configured to inject a reaction gas that reacts with the source gas, and a third injection portion configured to inject a cleaning gas that removes a reactant produced from the source gas and the reaction gas.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a substrate including a structure having a first region and a contact hole exposing the first region, loading the substrate into a process chamber, repeatedly performing two or more times, a deposition process that includes repeatedly applying radio frequency (RF) plasma power to a process gas for a first time duration and not applying the RF plasma power to the process gas for a second time duration, and a soak process that does not use plasma, at a metal-semiconductor compound formation temperature or higher, within the process chamber, and thereby forming a metal-semiconductor compound layer on the first region, a sidewall material layer on a sidewall of the contact hole, and an upper material layer on the structure, performing a removal process of removing at least a portion of the sidewall material layer in the process chamber, and unloading the substrate from the process chamber after performing the removal process.
Abstract:
Provided are a semiconductor device and a method of fabricating the same. The semiconductor device may include a plurality of unit cells provided on a semiconductor substrate. Each of the unit cells may include a buried insulating pattern buried in the semiconductor substrate, a first active pattern provided on the buried insulating pattern, and a second active pattern provided on the buried insulating pattern and spaced apart from the first active pattern. The buried insulating pattern may define a unit cell region, in which each of the unit cells may be disposed.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a first semiconductor layer including a recess region and protrusions defined by the recessed region, first insulating patterns provided on the protrusions and extending to sidewalls of the protrusions, and a second semiconductor layer to fill the recess region and cover the first insulating patterns. The protrusions includes a first group of protrusions spaced apart from each other in a first direction to constitute a row and a second group of protrusions spaced from the first group of protrusions in a second direction intersecting the first direction and spaced from each other in the first direction to constitute a row. The second group of protrusions are shifted from the first group of protrusions in the first direction.

Abstract:
Disclosed are method and apparatus for forming a thin layer. The method for forming the thin layer comprises providing a substrate including patterns, forming a bonding layer on the substrate covering an inner surface of a gap between the patterns, forming a preliminary layer on the bonding layer filling the gap; and thermally treating the preliminary layer to form the thin layer. The bonding layer is a self-assembled monomer layer formed using an organosilane monomer. The preliminary layer is formed from a flowable composition comprising polysilane.
