The vavuum pump 53 that pipe 55 connects, chambers are vented via exhaust pipe arrangement 51-1~51-4 and shared exhaust pipe arrangement 55, arranged
It is processed via discharge waste gas treatment equipment 54 to go out waste gas.Exhaust pipe arrangement 51-1~51-4 be respectively arranged with air bleeding valve 52-1~
52-4, it is opened in film process.
In the batch-type ALD film formation devices of the prior art, as shown in Fig. 4 (b), during ALD film forming in, make first
Supply valve 27-1,27-2,27-3,27-4 and second supply valve 28-1,28-2,28-3,28-4 synchronizations are simultaneously alternately intermittently opened
Close.In addition, in during ALD film forming, purge gas is always supplied with.Thus, to the first process chamber 15-1~fourth processing chamber
The process (S1) of the first processing gas of supply is with supplying the process (S2) of second processing gas alternately intermittently by reality in 15-4
Apply, 28 pent period of the first supply valve 27 and the second supply valve between them, be only supplied purge gas, implement to place
The first purging process (S3), the second purging process (S4) purged in reason room 15.In addition, the air bleeding valve in film process
52-1~52-4 is opened, via exhaust pipe arrangement 51-1~51-4 and the row of sharing in the first process chamber 15-1~fourth processing chamber 15-4
Gas pipe arrangement 55 is vented.
At this moment, quantity of the required quantity delivered of processing gas with process chamber compared with one chip film formation device correspondingly increases
Add.In addition, recently, the increased tendency of number of the substrate of maximization and the single treatment of substrate, thus, a secondary supply be present
Must measuring for processing gas dramatically increase.Correspondingly, in Fig. 4 (b) example, by the supply for extending processing gas
Time, to ensure necessary gas delivery volume.But understood according to Fig. 4 (a), (b), when extension the first processing gas and second
During the service time of processing gas, correspondingly productive temp (yield) deteriorates.And the deterioration of the productive temp is with ALD's
Period is correspondingly accumulated.
In order to suppress the deterioration of productive temp, it is necessary to increase unstrpped gas supply capacity, in this case, in order that gas
Feed unit maximizes and improves installation cost, and the utilization ratio of processing gas like that as demonstrated below reduces.
In ALD film forming, the first processing gas and second processing gas are alternately supplied in a pulsed manner to process chamber, existed
Processing gas is fed into process chamber and is used for the period (pulse ON) of film forming and for process chamber and the purging of exhaust channel
Deng and processing gas is not supplied to the period (pulse OFF) that process chamber is not used for film forming.On the other hand, processing gas
Supply mode there is various ways in which according to species of film forming raw material etc., for example, by gas raw material maintain the original state by mass flow control
Device (MFC) processed carries out flow control and supplies the mode of processing gas, by inertness gas in liquid charging stock, and carries out
Foaming (bubbling) mode of pressurization ground supply processing gas, makes raw material as ozone generator using plasma mechanism
Mode that gas activation is supplied to as processing gas etc., no matter in the case of any mode, in order to maintain stable gas
Quantity delivered, concentration, processing gas always must be supplied from gas feed unit in the execution of ALD processing, do not made in film forming
Period (pulse OFF), processing gas have to go out of use not via process chamber.The quantity delivered of processing gas is more at most
The discarded amount is more, and when increasing unstrpped gas supply capacity, the utilization ratio of processing gas reduces.
In the batch-type ALD film formation devices of prior art, in order that the supply capacity of processing gas and prior art
One chip ALD film formation devices are identical, and the first processing gas and the are being supplied to the first process chamber 15-1~fourth processing chamber 15-4
During two processing gas, the timesharing for making the first processing gas and the supply moment of second processing gas stagger by each process chamber supplies
It is effective to mode.I.e. as shown in Fig. 5 (b), first supply valve 27-1,27-2,27-3,27-4 is initially opened successively, makes confession
Process (S1) to the first processing gas has the time poorly successively relative to the first process chamber 15-1~fourth processing chamber 15-4
Carry out, then, open second supply valve 28-1,28-2,28-3,28-4 successively, make the process (S2) of supply second processing gas
Relative to the first process chamber 15-1~fourth processing chamber 15-4 there is the time poorly to carry out successively, and they are alternately entered repeatedly
OK.
But in the case where carrying out timesharing supply mode using the batch-type ALD film formation devices of prior art, such as Fig. 5
(b) shown in, when chambers are carried out with the supply of single treatment gas, the time difference is set to supply it respectively relative to chambers
Processing gas, until next processing gas can not be supplied at the end of supplying its processing gas to whole process chambers, also, due to
The regular hour must be separated between the timesharing supply of the first processing gas and the timesharing supply of second processing gas, thus it is raw
Production beat significantly deteriorates, and the deterioration of the productive temp and ALD period are correspondingly accumulated.And by Fig. 4 (b) and Fig. 5 (b) phases
Compare i.e. it can be appreciated that the deterioration of productive temp at this moment is compared in the batch-type ALD film formation devices of prior art without timesharing
In the case of supply mode significantly.Further, since such productive temp deteriorates, the discarded quantitative change of processing gas is more.
Like this, in the supply of processing gas once, until the supply knot of its processing gas to whole process chambers
Next processing gas is not supplied untill beam, in addition, being supplied in the timesharing supply of the first processing gas and the timesharing of second processing gas
Regular hour is set between giving, is to strongly prevent that the first processing gas occurs with second processing gas in exhaust channel
Mix and reaction of formation product.
But because exhaust channel is one in the batch-type ALD film formation devices of prior art, even if seeking such return
Strategy is kept away, the processing gas of the opposing party is supplied in the state of the processing gas of a side is remained, is not avoided that both are mixed
Close, the supply mode regardless of processing gas, be not avoided that the generation of reaction product.Reaction generation in exhaust channel
Thing increases with the increase of the quantity delivered of processing gas, the reaction product powder and blockage is matched somebody with somebody into exhaust, it is or right
Valve and pump produce baneful influence, and maintenance period deteriorates.In addition, cause the short service life of valve and pump.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, in batch-type ALD film formation devices, the processing gas of time per unit can be made
Necessary quantity delivered it is identical with one chip ALD film formation devices, and do not reduce the utilization ratio of productive temp and processing gas as far as possible,
Suppress the generation of the reaction product in exhaust channel, carry out batch-type ALD film forming.
Hereinafter, reference picture 6 and Fig. 7, by the one chip ALD film formation devices of prior art and the batch-type ALD of prior art
The film process of film formation device are compared, while the film process of the film formation device progress using present embodiment are said
It is bright.
Fig. 6 is the gas supply system for the film formation device for representing present embodiment and the schematic diagram of gas extraction system, and Fig. 7 is table
Show by carry out one chip ALD film forming when valve opening and closing at the time of with carry out present embodiment batch-type AlD film forming when valve
The timing diagram that is compared of opening and closing moment.In addition, for convenience, eliminate in figure 6 purge gas feed system and from
Dynamic pressure force control valve (APC), in addition, represent be that there are 4 process chambers, and to multiple process chambers, air supply valve,
Air bleeding valve etc. marks different references.It is other to mark identical reference with Fig. 1.In addition, in Fig. 7 timing diagram, with
Fig. 4, Fig. 5 are same, represent 3 circulations of ALD film forming.
As shown in fig. 6, the film formation device of present embodiment, in terms of with 2 exhaust channels with Fig. 3 prior art
Batch-type ALD film formation devices are different.That is, gas supply system is identical with Fig. 3, but with the first process chamber 15-1~fourth process
Exhaust pipe arrangement 31-1,31-2,31-3,31-4 of room 15-4 connections branch into first branch pipe arrangement 32-1,32-2,32-3,32-4
With second branch pipe arrangement 33-1,33-2,33-3,33-4, first exhaust is respectively arranged with first branch pipe arrangement 32-1~32-4
Valve 34-1,34-2,34-3,34-4, second branch pipe arrangement 33-1~33-4 be respectively arranged with second row air valve 35-1,35-2,
35-3、35-4。
In the film formation device of present embodiment, timesharing supply mode is used as shown in Fig. 7 (b), i.e.,:Originally, beat successively
First supply valve 27-1,27-2,27-3,27-4 is opened, the process (S1) of the first processing gas will be supplied relative to the first process chamber
There is 15-1~fourth processing chamber 15-4 the time poorly to carry out successively, then, open second supply valve 28-1,28-2,28- successively
3rd, 28-4, when the process (S2) for supplying second processing gas is had relative to the first process chamber 15-1~fourth processing chamber 15-4
Between poorly carry out successively, and by them alternately repeatedly.During between these processes, purge gas is only supplied, is blown
Sweep the purging process (S3, S4) of process chamber.Also, the first process chamber 15-1~fourth processing chamber 15-4 exhaust, opening the
When one supply valve 27-1~27-4 supplies the first processing gas, open first row air valve 34-1~34-4 and close second exhaust
Valve 35-1~35-4, discharge waste gas is set to be passed to first branch pipe arrangement 32-1~32-4 sides (the exhaust channel side of a side),
When opening second supply valve 28-1~28-4 supply second processing gases, close first row air valve 34-1~34-4 and open the
Two air bleeding valve 35-1~35-4, discharge waste gas is passed to second branch pipe arrangement 33-1~33-4 sides, (exhaust of the opposing party is led to
Trackside).It is carried out in the way for switching in purging process (S3, S4) of the exhaust channel.
Like this, by setting 2 exhaust channels for chambers, thus, it is possible to regard the exhaust channel of a side as the
The exhaust of one processing gas is used, and is used, can strongly be suppressed the exhaust channel of the opposing party as the exhaust of second processing gas
First processing gas and second processing gas mixing in exhaust channel, therefore, the processing gas of chambers is supplied and is vented
Action can independently be carried out with other process chambers.Therefore, in timesharing supply mode, for example, from supply the first processing gas to
When supplying second processing gas, it will not occur as the batch-type ALD film formation devices of prior art, until the processing to whole
Untill room the first processing gas of supply terminates, it is impossible to supply second processing gas, two processing gas in multiple process chambers
Service time it is overlapping can also.In addition, also without the timesharing supply in the first processing gas and point of second processing gas
When supply between the regular hour is set.In addition, according to timesharing supply mode, the supply capacity of processing gas and one chip
ALD film formation devices are identical.
Therefore, as shown in Fig. 7 (b), throughout manage in room, can be by identical with Fig. 7 (a) one chip ALD film process
At the time of supply the first processing gas and second processing gas, for one chip productive temp deterioration also only with initial stage
The time of timesharing, do not accumulate, therefore can significantly suppress the deterioration of productive temp compared with Fig. 4 (b) and Fig. 5 (b).In addition,
Compared with Fig. 4 (b) and Fig. 5 (b), the pulse ON of time per unit number increase, pulse OFF time is reduced, and is handled
The quantity delivered of gas is identical with one chip film formation device, therefore the discarded amount of processing gas is reduced, it is possible to increase processing gas
Utilization ratio.Also, because accordingly being shunted from being supplied to the processing gas of process chamber using different exhaust channels,
So can effectively suppress in exhaust channel 2 kinds of processing gas mixing and reaction of formation product, can mode be vented it is logical
The maintenance period on road deteriorates.
In addition, before ALD film forming starts, terminate after, by first row air valve 34-1~34-4 (first row air valve 34 in Fig. 1)
Opened with second row air valve 35-1~35-4 (second row air valve 35 in Fig. 1) two sides, be vented, can obtain from the exhaust channel of two sides
To higher exhaust capacity.In addition, in ALD film forming, when purging process (S3, S4), the situation of increase capacity is being needed
It is inferior, from process chamber 15-1~15-4 (process chamber 15 in Fig. 1) and it is vented pipe arrangement 31-1~31- if in each processing gas
After 4 (in Fig. 1 be vented pipe arrangements 31) are fully processed, in the way of these processes can also by first row air valve 34-1~
34-4 and second row air valve 35-1~35-4 two sides open, and are exhausted from the exhaust channel of two sides.In addition, in order to further
The shunting effect of exhaust channel is improved, makes to prevent that the effect of the mixing of the first processing gas and second processing gas is higher, also may be used
With in exhaust without using exhaust channel supply N2The inertness gas of gas etc., relatively improves pressure therein.And
And as first row air valve 34-1~34-4 and second row air valve 35-1~35-4, from for on-off action mechanism and sealing
Durability in terms of set out, can also without using the seal of O-ring etc. and use conductance vario valve.It is even such
Without using the material valve of seal, because most discharge waste gas (processing gas) is intentionally passed to exhaust channel, therefore
Desired effect can be obtained.
As described above, in present embodiment, in batch-type ALD film process, using timesharing supply mode and according to place
This two side of process gases switching exhaust channel, thus, it is possible to not increase gas delivery volume, and can play and strongly suppress life
The reduction of beat is produced, improves the utilization ratio of processing gas, the generation for suppressing reaction product in exhaust channel is so notable
Effect.
In addition, the invention is not limited in above-mentioned embodiment, there can be various modifications.For example, in above-mentioned embodiment
In, exemplified with the exhaust flow path switching part as switching exhaust flow path, using the air bleeding valve for being respectively arranged at 2 branch's pipe arrangements,
By the example of the opening and closing switching exhaust flow path of these valves, but be not limited to that this, as shown in figure 8, can also be used as everywhere
The exhaust flow path switching part of room is managed, single switching valve is set in the branch of first branch's pipe arrangement 32 and second branch's pipe arrangement 33
(triple valve) 45.Quantity thus, it is possible to further reduce valve.
In addition, in the above-described embodiment, exemplified with the situation of alternately 2 kinds of processing gas of supply, but to be supplied
The quantity of processing gas is not limited thereto, and can also be applied to the situation that timesharing supplies a variety of processing gas, with processing gas
Quantity branch's pipe arrangement is correspondingly set, according to processing gas switch exhaust flow path.
