Abstract

PURPOSE:To anneal a sample with a lamp without forming an oxide film on a metal film by providing a lamp annealing unit and a film forming unit in the same equipment, and providing a conveying system for conveying the sample in an inert atmosphere or in vacuum therebetween. CONSTITUTION:A silicon substrate conveyed into a load locking chamber 7 and separated from an atmospheric air is conveyed through a conveying system 8 into a film forming chamber 9. Here, after a titanium film is formed, for example, by a sputtering method on the substrate, the semiconductor substrate is again conveyed through the system 8 into a lamp annealing chamber 10. Since the system is a vacuum or inert gas atmosphere state at this time, the substrate can be conveyed to the annealing chamber without forming an oxide film on the film to be easily oxidized. Thereafter, it is lamp-annealed in vacuum or in gas of arbitrary type to form a film without oxide film on the titanium film.
