Description
本実施の形態の半導体装置の製造工程を図面を参照して説明する。図1〜図5は、本発明の一実施の形態である半導体装置、例えばCMISFET(Complementary Metal Insulator Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor)を有する半導体装置の製造工程中の要部断面図である。
この時、還元反応により生成された生成物((NH4)2SiF6)が半導体ウエハSWの主面上に残留する。さらに、半導体ウエハSWはウエハステージ27a上に載せてあるだけであり、上記生成物は半導体ウエハSWの側面および裏面の一部にも残留する。半導体ウエハSWの側面および裏面の一部に残留する生成物は、半導体ウエハSWを他のチャンバへ搬送する場合などにおいて剥がれ、汚染や発塵の原因となる。そこで、ドライクリーニング処理(処置)に続いて、チャンバ27内において半導体ウエハSWに熱処理を施すことにより、半導体ウエハSWの主面上に残留する生成物を除去すると同時に、半導体ウエハSWの側面および裏面の一部に残留する生成物を除去する。
しかしながら、上記ドライクリーニング処理時に半導体ウエハSWに形成された生成物の組成が(NH4)2SiF6から僅かでもずれていると、温度100から150℃の熱処理では式(2)の反応が起こり難く、完全に生成物を除去することができなくなり、極微少の生成物が半導体ウエハSWの主面上に残留する。前述したように、半導体ウエハSWの主面上に微少な生成物が残留していると、その後半導体ウエハSWの主面上に形成される金属シリサイド層(例えばニッケルシリサイド層)の電気抵抗にばらつきが生じる。そこで、次工程において、半導体ウエハSWに150℃よりも高い温度の熱処理を施して、半導体ウエハSWの主面上に残留した微少の生成物を除去する。
図52〜図56は、本実施の形態の半導体装置の製造工程中の要部断面図である。図52は、上記図4と同じ工程段階に対応し、図56は、上記図12と同じ工程段階に対応する。
