Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent evaporation of a P from the surface of a semiconductor crystal when a P4S7 film is to be formed on the InP semiconductor crystal by a method wherein formation thereof is performed in an atmosphere containing P. CONSTITUTION:After a semiconductor crystal 12 consisting of an InP crystal is set in a reaction tube 10, the surface of the crystal 12 is cleaned supplying HCl+H2 gas from a gas source 4. Then after the inside of the reaction tube 10 is replaced with PH3+H2 gas supplied from a gas source 3, the crystal 12 is heated by a heat source 11. At this time, evaporation of P from the surface of the crystal 12 is suppressed by existence of PH3 gas. Then, after supply of gas from the gas source 3 is cut, SCl2 gas and H3PS4 gas are supplied respectively from a gas source 1 and a gas source 2. Accordingly a vapor phase reaction of gases mentioned above is performed in the reaction tube 10, and as a result, an insulating film consisting of P4S7 is formed on the semiconductor crystal 12.

Even if it is applied to the production of field effect transistors, it has drawbacks such as the inability to produce insulated gate MI8 field effect transistors with desired practicality.
