In the past, a mixture of ammonia (NH3) and phosphine (PH3) was used. This reaction between ammonia and phosphine becomes usable only at temperatures above 900°C, and this is because the rate of this reaction is determined by the decomposition of ammonia, and ammonia is an extremely stable substance. By using tungsten or the like as a catalyst, the reaction rate can be increased several times at 900°C, but even when a catalyst is used, a high temperature of 900°C or higher is essential.

An insulating film is formed by depositing on indium phosphorus kept at 480° C. or higher. During deposition, if radiation from a high-temperature region hits the semiconductor surface directly, the film quality will deteriorate due to optical damage, and if the semiconductor substrate temperature is lower than 480°C, phosphorus will be trapped in the film and deteriorate the film quality.・It is known that as soon as the film begins to show changes over time, the rake current increases, making it impossible to use it as a gate insulating film. In order to improve the characteristics of field-effect transistors using compound semiconductors, it is desirable to deposit a high-quality gate insulating film at the lowest possible substrate temperature.
本発明は、アンモニアによる窒化の際の高温反応に付随

堆積温度の低温化を実現した窒化膜形成方法を提供する
ものである。In order to solve the problems associated with the high temperature reaction during nitriding with ammonia, the present invention aims to lower the reaction temperature and reduce the deposition temperature by nitriding by chemical vapor deposition using nitrogen trifluoride (NF). The present invention provides a method for forming a nitride film that achieves lower temperatures.
以下図面により本発明の詳細な説明する。The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to the drawings.
図は本発明を実施する装置の具体例であって、1は割形
電気炉、2は石英製反応管、3は半導体基板、4.4a

給される。電気炉の温度分布は6または7のように設定
する。The figure shows a specific example of an apparatus for carrying out the present invention, in which 1 is a split electric furnace, 2 is a quartz reaction tube, 3 is a semiconductor substrate, and 4.4a
5.5a is a Teflon connector, and 5.5a is a Teflon tube. A mixed gas of nitrogen trifluoride (1%) and phosphine (1%) diluted with argon is supplied to the reaction tube through tube 5. The temperature distribution of the electric furnace is set as 6 or 7.
本装置により窒化燐をInP上に堆積する場合、まず最
初にアルゴン等の不活性ガスで反応管2中の空気を追出
した後に、希釈したホスフィン(P H3)を流しなが
ら反応管2を割形電気炉lを開いて中に入れる。反応管
2の温度が定常状態に達したところで、希釈三弗化窒素
(NF’3)を流すと直ちに窒化燐の堆積がはじまる。When depositing phosphorus nitride on InP using this device, first expel the air in the reaction tube 2 with an inert gas such as argon, and then split the reaction tube 2 while flowing diluted phosphine (PH3). Open the electric furnace and put it inside. When the temperature of the reaction tube 2 reaches a steady state, diluted nitrogen trifluoride (NF'3) is allowed to flow, and the deposition of phosphorus nitride begins immediately.
基板3の温度が500℃以下の場合には反応管2を電気

弗化窒素(NF3)を流し、反応管2を電気炉1に入れ
てから後にホスフィン(PH3)を流してもよい。しか
しながら、基板3の温度が500℃以上の場合、まず最
初にホスフィン(PH’3)を流すことが必要である。If the temperature of the substrate 3 is below 500°C, a mixed gas of nitrogen trifluoride (NFS) and phosphine (PHs) may be supplied before the reaction tube 2 is placed in the electric furnace 1, or a mixed gas of nitrogen trifluoride (NFS) and phosphine (PHs) may be supplied first. After the reaction tube 2 is placed in the electric furnace 1, phosphine (PH3) may be introduced. However, if the temperature of the substrate 3 is 500° C. or higher, it is necessary to flow phosphine (PH'3) first.
さもないと、基板3は三弗化窒素(NFS)のためはげ
しく侵食される。Otherwise, the substrate 3 will be severely attacked by nitrogen trifluoride (NFS).
このようにして6の温度分布の場合で1%希釈の三弗化
窒素及びホスフィンを使用した時、400℃まで堆積が
可能であり、7の温度分布において高温度領域を450
℃にした場合、基板3の温度370℃まで堆積が可能で
ある。In this way, when using 1% diluted nitrogen trifluoride and phosphine in the case of temperature distribution 6, deposition up to 400°C is possible, and in the case of temperature distribution 7, the high temperature region can be increased to 450°C.
℃, deposition is possible up to the temperature of the substrate 3 of 370°C.
6の温度分布の場合、基板3の温度をさらに下げると極
度に堆積速度が遅くな91時間以内に1oooX程度の
膜厚を得ることができなくなる。In the case of temperature distribution 6, if the temperature of the substrate 3 is further lowered, the deposition rate is extremely slow and a film thickness of about 100X cannot be obtained within 91 hours.
この場合、三弗化窒素(NFS)ならびにホスフィン(
PH3)の濃度を上げれば堆積速度を上げることができ
るが、あまり濃度を上げすぎると爆発する。In this case, nitrogen trifluoride (NFS) and phosphine (
It is possible to increase the deposition rate by increasing the concentration of PH3), but if the concentration is increased too much, it will explode.

素の中の弗素が結合することにより、活性の窒素と燐が
生成し、それらが結合して窒化燐ができるためである。The lower limit of reaction temperature is significantly lowered by using nitrogen trifluoride (NF3), but this is because the bonding force between hydrogen and fluorine is extremely strong. This is because the combination of fluorine produces active nitrogen and phosphorus, which combine to form phosphorus nitride.
従って、この反応により弗化水素が生じることとなり、
これが石英反応管2を侵すこととなる。しかしながら、
実際には石英反応管2の管壁にも窒化燐膜がつき、これ
が弗化水素に対して腐食されにくいので、一度絶縁膜で
管壁をコートしてしまえばあとは繰返し使用できる。Therefore, this reaction produces hydrogen fluoride,
This will attack the quartz reaction tube 2. however,
In reality, a phosphorous nitride film is also attached to the tube wall of the quartz reaction tube 2, and this is not easily corroded by hydrogen fluoride, so that once the tube wall is coated with an insulating film, it can be used repeatedly.

膜を作ることができる。The above is about the case of phosphorus nitride film, but phosphine (
By using an inert gas containing an organic metal such as trimethylaluminum or triethylindium instead of PH3), a film of aluminum nitride or indium nitride can be formed.
また、シランを用いれば窒化シリコン膜を得ることがで
きる。Furthermore, a silicon nitride film can be obtained by using silane.

方が配管、減圧弁の腐食の問題が少なく、取扱い易い利
点がおる。Phosphorus nitride is also phosphorus trifluoride (F'Fa) and ammonia (N
It can also be obtained by the reaction H3). In this case as well, the strong bonds of hydrogen fluoride make it possible to lower the temperature, but phosphorus trifluoride is more reactive than nitrogen trifluoride at room temperature, so nitrogen trifluoride is more difficult to use in piping and depressurization. It has the advantage that there is less problem of valve corrosion and it is easy to handle.
以上説明したように、本発明によシ三弗化窒素を窒化剤
として窒化膜を化学的気相堆積すると、堆積温度の低温
化が実現でき、ゲート絶縁膜形成に応用した場合、良好
な界面特性が得られる利点がある。As explained above, by chemical vapor deposition of a nitride film using nitrogen trifluoride as a nitriding agent according to the present invention, the deposition temperature can be lowered, and when applied to gate insulating film formation, a good interface can be achieved. It has the advantage of providing certain characteristics.
