Abstract

PURPOSE:To remove residue of reactive ion etching, an undesired oxide film, and to round a trench corner by employing plasma nitriding of a silicon substrate. CONSTITUTION:A trench 8 is formed by reactive ion etching. Thereafter, the residue 4 of reactive ion etching is removed by preprocessing, but cannot be completely removed, and the edge of a trench corner 5 remains as it is. Here, after the preprocessing, a nitride film 6 is formed by plasma nitriding. Thus, the residue 4 of the reactive ion etching is removed by the operation of the plasma during the processing, an undesired oxide film is not formed, and the corner 5 is rounded.

Next, the manufacturing method will be explained. A trench (8) is formed by reactive ion etching in the silicon substrate (1) through a mask (2). At this time, residue (4) from reactive ion etching adheres to the inner wall of the trench (8), and the edges of the trench corner portions (5) remain. After performing pretreatment to remove the residue (4) caused by reactive ion etching, a nitride film (7) is formed by CVD treatment as in (1)l. Residues from reactive ion etching that could not be removed by treatment (4);
It is formed on an undesired oxide film (8) formed by natural oxidation or entrainment oxidation.
