Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for forming a tantalum nitride film, a method for fabricating a semiconductor memory device, and a plasma CVD device used in the method. [Prior Art] At present, a representative non-volatile semiconductor memory device such as an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable and Programmable ROM), which is electrically rewritable, is called a SONOS (Silicon-Oxide-Nitride-Oxide-Silicon) type or A laminated structure of the MONOS (Metal-Oxide-Nitride-Oxide-Silicon) type. In these types of nonvolatile semiconductor memory devices, one or more layers of a tantalum nitride film (Nitride) sandwiched by a ruthenium dioxide film (Oxide) are used as a charge storage region for information retention. That is, the non-volatile semiconductor memory device applies a voltage between a semiconductor substrate and a control gate electrode (Silicon or Metal), thereby depositing electrons in the silicon nitride film of the charge storage region to store data. Or the electrons stored in the tantalum nitride film are removed, and the data is saved and erased. In the above nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, the imaginable data writing characteristic is related to the ease of implantation of electrons into the tantalum nitride film of the charge storage region, particularly with charge trapping existing in the tantalum nitride film. The center (trap) has a relationship. In the technique of the non-volatile semiconductor device, it is described in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei. The middle part is provided with a migration layer containing a large amount of Si from -5 to 201107521. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION With the recent increase in the integration of semiconductor devices, the structure of the non-volatile semiconductor s-resonance device has been rapidly miniaturized. In order to refine the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, it is necessary to increase the trapezing of the tantalum nitride film of the charge storage layer in each of the nonvolatile semiconductor devices, thereby improving data writing performance. However, the film forming method of the CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) method or the thermal CVD method is technically difficult to form a trap in the process of forming a nitrided film. Further, although it is conceivable that the plasma CVD method can increase the ionicity of the plasma by setting the treatment pressure in the processing container to a high vacuum state (for example, 3 Pa or less), a large number of traps can be formed in the tantalum nitride film. The processing vessel of the hot wall (the chamber is heated) is maintained in a high vacuum state, and a vacuum sealing technology capable of withstanding a high vacuum state, a pressure vessel, a high-performance exhaust device, etc. are required, and the load of the device is increased, and the cost is increased. There will also be disadvantages of getting higher. Further, in the case where the ion is highly vacuumed, since the plasma energy is increased, the sputtering action of the parts and the like in the conventional processing container becomes strong, and the risk of contamination by heavy metals or particles or the like increases, or nitrogen The coverage of the ruthenium film formation will be low, and there will be problems in the process side. Further, in the tantalum nitride film formed by the conventional plasma CVD method, the trap is too much in the interface with the adjacent film, and it is impossible to control the distribution of the trap in the film thickness direction of the tantalum nitride film. 201107521 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a useful tantalum nitride film by a plasma CVD method while controlling the distribution of a trap in the film thickness direction. A method of charge storage layer of a non-volatile semiconductor memory device. The method for forming a tantalum nitride film according to the present invention is a method for forming a tantalum nitride film in which a tantalum nitride film is deposited on a target object by a plasma CVD method in a processing container of a plasma CVD apparatus. The present invention provides a tantalum nitride film forming process for supplying a processing gas containing a ruthenium-containing compound gas and a nitrogen-containing gas to a processing chamber to form a plasma, and forming a tantalum nitride film on the object to be processed; And an oxygen atom-containing gas introduction process for stopping the plasma in the middle of the formation of the tantalum nitride film, introducing an oxygen-containing atom gas into the processing chamber, and exposing the tantalum nitride film in the middle of formation to oxygen And form a trap. In the method for forming a tantalum nitride film according to the present invention, it is preferable that the tantalum nitride film forming process includes: growing the tantalum nitride film by the plasma before the oxygen atom-containing gas introduction process 1); and a second project in which the tantalum nitride film is grown by the plasma after the introduction of the oxygen-containing atom gas. In this case, it is preferable that the oxygen-containing atomic gas introduction process is performed at a stage in which the thickness of the target film is increased by 30% or more and 70% or less. More preferably, the film formation method of the tantalum nitride film of the present invention is repeated twice or more. 201107521 The oxygen atom-containing gas introduction process is carried out. Further, in the film forming method of the tantalum nitride film of the present invention, it is preferable that the plasma CVD apparatus is a plasma CVD apparatus which generates a plasma by introducing microwaves into the processing chamber by a planar antenna having a plurality of holes. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory device according to the present invention is a semiconductor device in which a tunnel oxide film, a tantalum nitride film as a charge storage layer, a ruthenium oxide film, and a gate electrode are formed on a germanium layer. A method for producing a tantalum nitride film as the charge storage layer is formed by a film formation method of a tantalum nitride film, and the method for forming a tantalum nitride film includes: a tantalum nitride film a forming process for supplying a processing gas containing a cerium-containing compound gas and a nitrogen-containing gas to a processing vessel of a plasma CVD apparatus to generate a plasma, and forming a tantalum nitride film on the object to be processed by a plasma CVD method And an oxygen atom-containing gas introduction process for stopping the plasma in the middle of the formation of the tantalum nitride film, introducing an oxygen-containing atom gas into the processing chamber, and exposing the tantalum nitride film in the middle of formation to oxygen And form a trap. A plasma CVD apparatus according to the present invention includes: a processing container that stores a workpiece to be placed on a mounting table; and a gas supply device that supplies a processing gas to the processing chamber; And the control unit is controlled to form a film of a tantalum nitride film, and the film forming method of the tantalum nitride film comprises: nitriding In a ruthenium film forming process, when a tantalum nitride film is deposited on a target object by a plasma CVD method in the processing container, a processing gas containing a ruthenium-containing compound gas and a nitrogen-containing gas is supplied into the processing container. And the plasma is formed to form a tantalum nitride film on the object to be processed; and the oxygen atom-containing gas introduction process is performed to stop the plasma in the middle of the formation of the tantalum nitride film, and the introduction into the processing container The oxygen atom gas exposes the tantalum nitride film in the middle of formation to oxygen to form a trap. According to the film formation method of the tantalum nitride film according to the present invention, in the middle of deposition of the tantalum nitride film by the plasma CVD method, So that when the plasma is stopped, gas containing oxygen atoms introduced into the process vessel, the way of forming a silicon nitride film is exposed to oxygen, whereby the number of traps silicon nitride film can be formed. Further, by the timing of introduction of oxygen, the distribution of traps in the film thickness direction of the tantalum nitride film can be easily controlled. Thus, according to the method of the present invention, it is possible to manufacture a niobium nitride film in which a plurality of traps are present in a predetermined distribution by a simple method of controlling the gas system. Further, since the tantalum nitride film formed by the method of the present invention has a large number of traps in the film and the distribution of traps in the film thickness direction is controlled to an optimum position, the film is used as a nonvolatile property. The charge storage layer of the semiconductor memory device can obtain a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device with excellent writing characteristics.

Further, the body introduction hole 14 and the gas introduction hole 15 may be provided in a single shower head. Further, the side wall 1b of the processing container 1 is provided for the electric CVD apparatus 1 and the adjacent transfer chamber (not shown). The carry-in port 16 for carrying in and out of the wafer between the display and the gate valve gas supply device 18 for opening and closing the carry-in port 16 have a gas supply source (for example, a nitrogen-containing gas supply source 19a and an oxygen-containing gas supply) a source 19b, a sand-containing gas supply source 19c, an inert gas supply source 19d, a scrubbing gas supply source 19e), and a gas introduction pipe (for example, gas introduction pipes 20a, 20b 2 0 c, 2 〇d, 2 0 e ), And flow control devices (for example, mass flow control 21a, 21b, 21c, 21d, 21e) and valves (for example, on-off valves 22a-12-201107521 22b, 22c, 22d, 22e). The nitrogen-containing gas supply source 19a and the oxygen-containing atomic gas supply source 19b are connected to the upper gas introduction hole 14 via the gas introduction pipes 2a, 20b. Further, the Si-containing gas supply source 19c, the inert gas supply source 19d, and the scrubbing gas supply source 19e are connected to the lower gas introduction hole 15 via the gas introduction pipes 20c, 20d, and 20e. The washing gas supply source 9e is an unnecessary film used for washing and adhering to the processing container 1. Further, the gas supply device 18 may have a gas supply source (not shown), for example, a purge gas supply source used when replacing the environment in the processing container 1. In the present invention, the oxygen atom-containing gas may, for example, be oxygen (?2), ozone (03), nitrogen monoxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (N?2), nitrous oxide (N20) or the like. Further, as the cerium (Si)-containing gas, for example, decane (SiH4), ethane hydride (Si2H6), tetrachloro decane (SiCl4), hexachlorodioxane (Si2Cl6), chlorin (SiH2Cl2), chloroform (Si2HCl3) may be used. , propane (Si3H8), trimethylmethaneamine ((SiH3) 3N), etc., but in which a gas using a compound composed of a halogen atom and a chlorine atom, such as tetrachlorosilane (SiCl4) or hexachlorodioxane (Si2Cl6) ) is ideal. Further, as the nitrogen-containing (N) gas, nitrogen gas (N2), ammonia (nh3), hydrazine (N2H4), monomethyl hydrazine (ch6n2) or the like can be used, but it is preferred to use n2 gas containing no hydrogen. The combination of tetrachloromethane (SiCl4) or hexachlorodioxane (Si2ci6) and N2 composed of a ruthenium atom and a chlorine atom is a combination which can be desirably used in the present invention because hydrogen is not contained in the material gas molecules. Further, the inert gas is preferably a rare gas, for example, and an Ar gas 'Kr gas, Xe gas, -13-201107521 gas, or the like can be used. The purge gas is preferably inert to Ar gas or nitrogen gas. The gas containing N gas and the oxygen-containing atom are supplied from the gas supply device is a nitrogen gas supply source 19a and an oxygen-containing gas supply source to the gas introduction holes 14 through the gas inlet pipes 20a and 20b, and are introduced into the processing container 1 from the gas introduction 3. On the other hand, the Si-containing gas, the inactive gas, and the scrubbing gas are introduced from the Si-containing gas supply source 19c, the inert gas supply 19d, and the scrubbing gas supply source 19e to the gas introduction hole 15 through the gas introduction pipes 20c and 20e, respectively. Processing inside the container 1. Each of the gas introduction pipes 20a to 20e connected to each of the gas supply sources is provided with quality controllers 21a to 21e and front and rear opening and closing valves 22a to 22e. By the configuration of the gas supply device 18, it is possible to control the gas exchange or flow rate to be supplied. Further, the thin body for plasma excitation such as Ar is an arbitrary gas, and it is not necessarily supplied simultaneously with the processing gas (including the N gas containing N gas), but it is more preferable from the viewpoint of making the plasma stable. In particular, it is more preferable to use Ar gas as a flow for stabilization to supply a Si-containing gas to a carrier gas in the processing container. The exhaust device 24 is a vacuum pump (not shown) including a turbo molecular pump or the like. The vacuum pump is connected to the process vessel 1 gas chamber 11 via an exhaust pipe 12. By operating the vacuum pump, the gas in the processing container 1 uniformly flows into the space 11a of the exhaust chamber 1 1 and is further exhausted from the space 1 1 a exhaust pipe 12 to the outside. Thereby, the inside of the processing container 1 can be decompressed, for example, at a high speed to 0.133 Pa. Next, the configuration of the microwave introducing mechanism 27 will be described. The microwave gas containing body I 14 gas is supplied to the source 20d to the metering flow. The gas is cut, and the amount is added. The row is introduced through the uniform introduction-14-201107521 mechanism 27, and the main component is provided with a transparent plate 28, The planar antenna 3 1 , the slow wave material 33 , the metal cover member 34 , the waveguide 37 , and the microwave generating device 39 . The transmitting plate 28 that transmits the microwaves is provided on the support portion 13 a that protrudes from the plate member 13 to the inner peripheral side. The transmission plate 28 is made of a dielectric material such as quartz or ceramic (Al2〇3, A1N, etc.). Here, the gap between the transmission plate 28 and the support portion 13a is sealed by airtightness through the sealing member 29. Therefore, the inside of the processing container 1 is kept airtight. The planar antenna 31 is disposed above the transmitting plate 28 and opposed to the mounting table 2. The planar antenna 31 has a disk shape. Further, the shape of the planar antenna 3 1 is not limited to a disk shape, and may be, for example, a quadrangular plate shape. This planar antenna 3 1 is disposed on the upper surface of the plate member 13. The planar antenna 31 is composed of, for example, a copper plate, a nickel plate, a SUS plate or an aluminum plate plated with gold or silver on the surface. The planar antenna 31 is a plurality of slit-shaped microwave radiation holes 32 having a microwave. The microwave radiation hole 32 is formed by penetrating the planar antenna 3 1 in a predetermined pattern. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the microwave radiation hole 32 is formed in an elongated rectangular shape (slit shape), and two adjacent microwave radiation holes are formed. Correct. Further, it is typical that the adjacent pair of microwave radiation holes 32 are arranged in a predetermined pattern in a "T" shape or a "V" shape. Further, the microwave radiation holes 32 arranged in such a shape are arranged in a concentric shape, and the microwaves are introduced into the processing container 1 by concentric circular waves to form a uniform electric paddle. The length or arrangement interval of the microwave radiation holes 32 is determined in accordance with the wavelength (Xg) of the microwave. For example, the interval of the microwave radiation holes 32 can be configured as [ -15- 201107521

In Fig. 2, the interval between the adjacent microwave radiation holes 3 2 forming concentric circles is indicated by Ar. Further, the shape of the microwave radiation holes 3 2 may be other shapes such as a circular shape or an arc shape. Further, the arrangement of the microwave radiation holes 32 is not particularly limited, and may be arranged in a spiral shape or a radial shape, for example, in addition to the concentric shape. On the upper surface of the planar antenna 31, a slow wave material 33 having a dielectric constant larger than a vacuum is provided. This slow wave material 33 is because the wavelength of the microwave is long in the vacuum, so that it has the function of shortening the wavelength of the microwave to adjust the plasma. In addition, between the planar antenna 31 and the transmission plate 28, and the slow wave material 3 3 and the plane Although the antennas 31 can be contacted or separated from each other, it is preferable to make contact. A metal cover member 34 is provided on the upper portion of the processing container 1 so as to cover the planar antenna 31 and the slow wave member 33. The metal cover member 34 is formed of, for example, a metal material such as aluminum or stainless steel, and constitutes a flat waveguide as opposed to the planar antenna 31. The upper end of the plate 13 and the metal cover member 34 are sealed by a sealing member 35. In the inside of the metal cover member 34, a cooling water flow path 34a is formed. The cooling water flow path 34a is used to circulate the cooling water. The metal cover member 34, the slow wave material 33, the planar antenna 31, and the transmission plate 28 can be cooled. Further, the metal cover member 34 is grounded to the center of the upper wall (top) of the metal cover member 34, and an opening portion 36 is formed. Here, the opening portion 36 is connected to the waveguide 37»waveguide 37. The other end side is connected to the microwave generating device 39 which generates microwaves via the matching circuit 38. The waveguide 37 has a coaxial coaxial waveguide 37a having a circular cross section extending upward from the opening 36 of the metal cover member 34, and a rectangular extending horizontally connected to the upper end of the coaxial waveguide 37a. The waveguide 37b° has an inner conductor 41 extending in the center of the coaxial waveguide 37a. The inner conductor 41 is made of metal copper or the like, and is connected and fixed to the center of the planar antenna 31 at its lower end portion. With such a configuration, the microwave is propagated to the inner conductor 41 of the coaxial waveguide 37a and introduced to the planar antenna 31, and the radiation efficiency is uniformly propagated uniformly to the flat waveguide. According to the microwave introducing mechanism 27 configured as described above, the microwave generated by the microwave generating device 39 can be transmitted to the planar antenna 31 via the waveguide 37, and introduced into the processing container 1 via the transmissive plate 28. In addition, the frequency of the microwave is preferably 2.45 GHz, and the other is 8.35 GHz '1.98 GHz. Each component of the plasma CVD apparatus 100 is configured to be connected to the control unit 5 to be controlled. The control unit 50 has a computer. For example, as shown in Fig. 3, the control unit 50 includes a process controller 51 having a CPU, a user interface 52 connected to the process controller 51, and a memory unit 53. The process controller 51 is a constituent unit (for example, a heater power source 5a, a gas supply device 18, and an exhaust device 24) that collectively controls process conditions related to temperature, pressure, gas flow rate, microwave output, and the like in the plasma CVD apparatus 100. Control means for the microwave generating device 39, etc.). The user interface 52 has a keyboard, a display, and the like. The keyboard is an input operation of the commander to manage the plasma CVD device loo, -17-201107521. This display allows the visual state of the plasma CVD apparatus 1 to be visually displayed. Further, a prescription or the like is stored in the storage unit 53 for recording a control program (software) or processing condition data for realizing various processes performed in the plasma CVD apparatus under the control of the process controller 51. Wait. Then, if necessary, an arbitrary prescription is called from the memory unit 53 by an instruction from the user interface 52, etc., and is executed in the process controller 51 under the control of the process controller 51 in plasma CVD. The desired processing is performed in the processing container 1 of the apparatus 100. Further, the prescription of the control program or the processing condition data and the like can be stored in a computer-readable memory medium such as a CD-ROM, a hard disk, a software, a flash memory, a DVD, or a Blu-ray Disc (Blu-ray Disc). The state of the device or the like may be transmitted from any other device, for example, via a dedicated line. Next, a procedure for forming a film of a tantalum nitride film using a plasma CVD apparatus of the RLSA method will be described. Here, SiCl4 is used as the Si-containing gas, N2 gas is used as the N-containing gas, and 〇2 gas is used as the oxygen-containing atom gas. Fig. 4 is a timing chart showing the introduction of the micronization of the film formation process of the tantalum nitride film, the SiCl4 gas, the N2 gas, and the helium gas. First, the gate valve 17 is opened, and the wafer W is carried into the processing container 1 from the carry-out port 16, and is placed on the mounting table 2 for heating. Then, while the inside of the processing container 1 is evacuated, the N 2 gas is introduced into the processing container 1 from the nitrogen-containing gas supply source 19 a of the gas supply device 18 through the gas introduction hole 14 at a predetermined flow rate. The Si gas is introduced into the processing container 1 from the Si gas supply source 19c -18-201107521 and the inert gas supply source 19d via the gas introduction hole 15 via the gas introduction hole 15 (T〇 of Fig. 4). Further, the inside of the processing container 1 is set to a predetermined pressure. The conditions at this time will be described later. Next, the microwave of a predetermined frequency generated by the microwave generating device 39, for example, 2.45 GHz, is guided to the waveguide 37 via the matching circuit 38 (h of Fig. 4). The microwave guided by the waveguide 37 is sequentially supplied to the planar antenna 31 constituting the flat waveguide via the inner conductor 41 through the rectangular waveguide 37b and the coaxial waveguide 37a. The microwave propagates radially from the coaxial waveguide 37a to the planar antenna 31. Further, the microwave is radiated from the slit-shaped microwave radiation hole 3 2 of the planar antenna 31 via the transmission plate 28 in a space above the crystal W in the processing container 1 as a circular wave. By radiating the microwaves radiated to the processing container 1 from the planar antenna 31 through the transmission plate 28, an electromagnetic field is formed in the processing container 1, and the N2 gas, the SiCl4 gas, and the Ar gas are respectively plasmad. Then, in the plasma, the dissociation of the material gas proceeds efficiently, and the reaction of the active species (ion, radical, etc.), tantalum nitride (SiN; here, the composition ratio of Si and N is not necessarily stoichiometric It is determined that the film according to the film formation conditions is different, and the film of the following is stacked. The plasma CVD process is performed from the range of t1 to t4 in Fig. 4 . In the film formation method of the tantalum nitride film of the present embodiment, in the middle of the film formation of the tantalum nitride film of the CVD process, the electric power is stopped only for a predetermined period of time (the interval of t2 to h in FIG. 4), and the oxygen atom is contained. In the gas supply, the source of the oxygen-containing atomic gas such as the 〇2 gas is introduced into the gas through the gas introduction hole I4-19-201107521 The oxygen-containing atom gas introduction process in the chemical container 1 (here, since the 〇2 gas is typically used, There is a case of "〇2 gas flow". In the case of this gas flow, the tantalum nitride film on the way of formation is exposed to oxygen to cause Si-o bonding to form a trap. As described above, in the method for forming a tantalum nitride film according to the present embodiment, the formation of the tantalum nitride film is carried out by interposing the 02 gas, and the tantalum nitride film is grown by plasma before the flow of the helium gas. The first work (the interval of n to t2 in Fig. 4) and the second process in which the tantalum nitride film is grown by plasma after the flow of the 〇2 gas (the interval of t3 to t4 in Fig. 4). That is, the first tantalum nitride film is formed by plasma, and the first tantalum nitride film is exposed to the oxygen-containing gas to form a trap, and the second tantalum nitride film is formed thereon by plasma. Further, in the oxygen atom-containing gas introduction process, the Si-O bonding can be uniformly spread in a planar manner, and the trap can be uniformly dispersed. Figs. 5A to 5D are cross-sectional views showing the vicinity of the surface of the wafer W of the process of forming the tantalum nitride film by the plasma CVD apparatus 100. As shown in FIG. 5A, for example, on any of the underlayers (here, the Si〇2 film 60), a plasma CVD apparatus 100 is used to generate a SiCl4/N2 gas plasma, and a tantalum nitride is formed by a plasma CVD method. Membrane (SiN film) 7〇a (first project). The SiN film 70a of the first process is formed by supplying a SiCl gas containing Si gas and a treatment gas containing N 2 gas as a nitrogen-containing gas into the processing container 1, and can be carried out under the following conditions. In this case, it is preferable to form a stable supply gas with a plasma which is stabilized by the addition of a rare gas, and the treatment pressure is preferably in the range of 0.1 LPa or more and 6.7 Pa or less, and -20-201107521 is more preferably O.lPa or more and 4 Pa or less. Within the scope. In order to easily dissociate SiCl4, it is preferable to have a low processing pressure. When the treatment pressure exceeds 6.7 Pa, the dissociation of the Si Cl 4 gas is small, and the reaction with nitrogen does not progress, and the film formation is not sufficient, which is not preferable. Further, it is preferable that the flow ratio of the SiCl4 gas to the total flow rate of the processing gas (the percentage of the flow rate of the SiCl4 gas/total processing gas flow rate) is 〇3% or more and 15% or less, more preferably 〇. 〇3 % or more and 1%. the following. Further, it is preferable that the flow rate of the SiCl 4 gas is set to 10 mL/min or more and 10 mL/min or less, and more preferably set to 0.5 mL/min or more and 2 mL/min or less. In addition, the same is true when other types of Si-containing gas are used. Further, the ratio of the N2 gas flow rate to the total process gas flow rate (the percentage of the N2 gas/total process gas flow rate) is preferably 5% or more and 99% or less, more preferably 40% or more and 99% or less. Further, the flow rate of the N2 gas is preferably set to 100 mL/min (sccm) or more and 5000 mL/min (sccm) or less, and more preferably set to 1 mL/min (sccm) or more and 2000 mL/min (sccm) or less. In addition, the same is true when other types of N-containing gas are used. Further, the flow rate ratio of the Ar gas to the total processing gas flow rate (for example, the percentage of the Ar gas/total processing gas flow rate) is preferably 10% or more and 90% or less, more preferably 10% or more and 60% or less. Further, the flow rate of the rare gas such as Ar is preferably set to 10 mL/min (sccm) or more and 1000 mL/min (sccm) or less, and more preferably set to 10 m L / min (sccm) or more and 500 m L / min. (sccm) below. Further, the temperature of the plasma CVD treatment is set to be 300 ° C or higher, and preferably 400 ° C or higher and 600 ° C or lower. Further, the microwave output of the plasma CVD apparatus 100 is such that the power density per area of the transparent area is set in the range of 0.25 to 2.56 W/cm 2 , and the microwave output is, for example, in the range of 500 to 5 〇〇 OW. Power density. By the above strip, a tantalum nitride film containing no hydrogen can be uniformly formed. Next, as shown in Fig. 5B, after the first process, the oxygen-containing atom gas supply source 19b is stopped and the 〇2 gas is supplied for a short time (gas introduction process). That is, at a time (t2 to t3 in FIG. 4, the supply of the microwave, SiCl4, and N2 in the processing container 1 is stopped, and the 〇2 gas is introduced into the processing container in the processing container 1 by the plasma CVD of the first process. The surface of the SiN film formed by the treatment is exposed to oxygen, whereby a very small amount of oxygen can be introduced to the surface of the SiN. In addition, the oxygen-containing gas can also replace the 气体3 gas, the NO gas, the N02 gas, and the N20 for the 02 gas. Gas, etc. When the gas flows, the rare gas or the nitrogen gas that does not impair the gas flow effect of the helium gas can be used as the carrier gas together with the helium gas. For example, in Fig. 4, the supply of the N2 gas is stopped, but N2 The gas flow is not performed in the range of 30 to 70% of the time-scale film thickness in the vicinity of the center of the film thickness of the SiN film 70a (the total film thickness of the SiN film 70). It is desirable that the gas flow is within the temperature setting range, that is, the I plate 28. The purpose is to form a plasma under the option of the plasma, from the period of containing oxygen atoms, to extinguish the electricity inside the cell, and to make the surface of the 70a film 7a, for example Also, in the range to import. The supply of the example is also ideal for close to the camera, for example, it is more desirable to carry out the 〇2 gas flow in the range of -22 - 201107521 40~60%. As a result, as described later, when used as a charge storage layer of a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, good data writing characteristics can be obtained. The time during which the primary enthalpy gas flows is, for example, in the range of 10 seconds or more and 300 seconds or less, which is preferably in the range of preferably more than 30 seconds and not more than 1 to 20 seconds. The flow rate of the 〇2 gas (oxygen atom-containing gas) when the gas is 〇2 is, for example, 10 mL/min (sccm) or more and 2000 mL/min or less, and more preferably set to 10 mL/min (see). The above 2000 mL/min (them) or less is preferably set to 1 〇〇mL/min (see) or more and 10 〇〇〇mL/min (sccm) or less. In addition, the same is true when other types of oxygen-containing atomic gases are used. 02 The pressure in the processing container 1 at the time of gas flow is preferably set to the first process (the section of M to t2 in FIG. 4) or the second process (the t3 to t4 of FIG. 4) of the plasma CVD performed before and after. The interval is equal to or higher than the pressure, for example, 0.1 to 133.3 Pa. Further, by setting the pressure at which the helium gas is flowing to be higher than the pressure at which the tantalum nitride film is formed, the residence time of the helium gas in the processing container 1 is elongated, and the 02 gas flow can be further enhanced. Effect. After the end of the gas flow of 〇2, the plasma CVD treatment (second work) is started under the same conditions as the above-mentioned first project. That is, as shown in FIG. 5C and FIG. 5D, the microwave, SiCl4, and N2 are again supplied into the processing container 1, and the SiCl4/N2 gas plasma is generated, and in the first project, after the film formation The second SiN film 70b is deposited on the ISiN film 70a and laminated. In this manner, the SiN film 70 can be formed in a range of a target film thickness of, for example, 2 nm to 300 nm, preferably [-23-201107521] in a film thickness in the range of 2 nm to 50 nm. Once the SiN film 70 is grown to the target film thickness, the power of the microwave generating device 39 is turned off (OFF), and the plasma is stopped (t4 of Fig. 4). Then, the supply of SiCl4 and N2 is stopped (t5 of Fig. 4). As described above, since the film formation process for one wafer W is completed, the wafer W is carried out from the plasma CVD apparatus 100 in the reverse procedure. In Fig. 5D, the position at which the 〇2 gas is introduced into the SiN film 70 forming the target film thickness is shown by a broken line. The introduction of the gas of 〇2 is performed while the plasma is stopped, and the mixing of oxygen in the conventional SiN film 70 is a small amount. Even TEM (transmission electron micromirror) or XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) is performed on the SiN film 70. ) Analytical layers, etc., which are also unobserved. However, by the flow of 〇2 gas, it is conceivable that at least the planar Si-Ο bond is formed into a single layer or a single layer to form a high trap at the introduction position of the 〇2 gas in the SiN film 70 shown in FIG. 5D. The area of density (trap layer). Further, the gas flow of 〇2 is performed in a range of 30 to 70% (preferably 40 to 60%) of the target film thickness near the center of the target film thickness (the total film thickness of the SiN film 70). 'By this, the trap layer generated by the flow of the 〇2 gas can be formed within ±20% from the center of the SiN film 70 in the film thickness direction, and preferably within a range of ±10% or less, in the SiN film. When used as a charge storage layer for a non-volatile semiconductor memory device, 70 can achieve good data writing characteristics. The above conditions are stored in the memory unit 53 of the control unit 50 as a prescription. Then, the process controller 51 reads out the prescription and sends the control to each component of the credit CVD apparatus 1 such as the heater power source 5a, the gas supply device 18-24-201107521, the exhaust device 24, the microwave generating device 39, and the like. Signal, thereby achieving plasma CVD processing under the desired conditions. Since the SiN film 70 obtained as described above has many traps, the data writing characteristics are improved when used as a charge storage layer of a semiconductor memory device, for example. Further, by using the tantalum nitride film formed by the method of the present invention as a charge storage region of, for example, a semiconductor memory device, a semiconductor memory device having excellent data writing characteristics can be manufactured. [Second Embodiment] Next, a film forming method of a tantalum nitride film according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 6 and 7 . Fig. 6 is a timing chart showing the introduction of microwaves, SiCl 4 gas, N 2 gas, and 02 gas in the film formation process of the tantalum nitride film of the present embodiment. Further, Fig. 7 shows the introduction position of the krypton gas of the tantalum nitride film formed in the present embodiment. Further, in the present embodiment, SiCl 4 gas and N 2 gas are also used as the processing gas, and the same applies to the case of using other Si-containing gas or N-containing gas. In the first embodiment, the 〇2 gas flow is performed only once during the plasma CVD process (the interval t2 to t3 in Fig. 4). However, in the present embodiment, the 〇2 gas flow is repeated twice or more. It is different from the first embodiment. The present embodiment is the same as the first embodiment except that the flow of the helium gas is repeated twice or more. Therefore, the following description will focus on the difference. In Figs. 0 and 7, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted. The plasma CVD process of this embodiment is performed between the regions ι -25 - 201107521 of Fig. 6 to form the SiN film 70. At the predetermined time of the plasma CVD process (the interval between t12 and t13 in Fig. 6 and the interval between t14 and t15), the gas flow of 〇2 is performed. That is, 't in the first project, 】~t12 After the interval, the supply of the SiCl4 gas and the N2 gas in the processing container 1 is stopped, and the 02 gas is supplied from the oxygen-containing atomic gas 19b to the processing container 1 for a short period of time (first: gas flow; ti2 to ti3 of Fig. 6) Interval). After the first 〇2 gas flow is completed, the microwave, the SiCl4 gas, and the N2 gas are again supplied to the treatment volume, and the formation of the SiN film 70 by the plasma CVD treatment is started again as in the first process (t13 of FIG. 6). ~ t14 interval). Next, the supply of the microwave, the SiCl4 gas, and the N2 gas in the treatment is stopped again, and the 〇2 gas which supplies the 02 gas into the processing container 1 for a short time from the oxygen donor supply source 19b flows; t14 of Fig. 6 ~ t15 interval). In the other six, the length of the interval ti2 to t13 and the interval tl4 to ti5 may be the same, and each of the intervals of 1 〇 to 30,000 is ideal, and more preferably, it is 30 seconds to 1 2 0. Thereafter, microwaves, SiCl4 gas, and N2 gas are supplied again into the process, and plasma CVD processing (third process; t15 section of Fig. 6) is started again under the second process. This third project is essentially the same except for the engineering time. In addition, although the illustration is omitted, the purge gas is introduced into the treatment before the flow of the first 〇2 gas after the first project and before the flow of the 〇2 gas after the end of the second project, and the residual gas is removed. Membrane gas is ideal, which can improve the 〇2, only between) (Fig. 6 microwave, supply source under the condition of 〇2 device 1; container 1 atomic gas Ϊ (2, in the figure or different seconds The effect of the container 1 with the condition ti6 and the second end of the second container 1 gas flow -26-201107521. Fig. 7 shows the flow of 〇2 gas twice during the plasma CVD process. The introduction position of the 〇2 gas in the film thickness direction of the SiN film 70 to be formed is similar to that of the first embodiment, and the growth of the SiN film 70 approaches the target film in the film thickness direction. It is preferable to carry out the gas flow of the helium 2 in the range of 30 to 70% of the target film thickness of the film formation in the vicinity of the thickness of 1/2, and it is more preferable to carry out the gas flow of the helium 2 in the range of 40 to 60%. When the 02 gas flow is performed twice, the film formation of the SiN film 70 is reached. It is more preferable to carry out the second 02 gas flow at the timing until the 70% of the target film thickness of the film is reached at the timing after the time point of 30% of the film thickness. In the first place, the trap layer generated by the flow of the 〇2 gas can be formed within ±20% of the center of the SiN film 70 in the film thickness direction, and preferably within ±10% of the thickness of the SiN film 70. When the SiN film 70 is used as a charge storage layer of a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, good data writing characteristics can be obtained. As described above, by performing a plurality of 〇2 gas flows during the plasma CVD process, The trap is formed into a layered shape in the SiN film 70, and the SiN film 70 having a large number of traps can be formed. By forming a plurality of traps as described above, the SiN film 70 can be further improved as compared with the case where only one gas flow is performed once. The writing characteristics of the charge storage layer of the non-volatile semiconductor memory device are not limited to two, and may be repeated three times or more. When the gas flow is repeated three or more times. Can combine 02 gas The flow and the second work are repeated. -27- 201107521 Other configurations and effects of the present embodiment are the same as the first [test example] Next, the basis of the present invention is described, and the SONOS structure as shown in Fig. 8 is created. The symbol 60 is a SiO 2 film, the symbol 70 is a recessed symbol 80 is a blocking SiO 2 film, the symbol 90 a is a single Si substrate, the symbol 90 b is a polycrystalline germanium film, the SiN Jg layer, and the polycrystalline germanium film 90b is provided as a control gate. In the electric test, the tantalum substrate 90a is set to the ground potential, and the rhythm is applied in a predetermined range to change the voltage (forward (reversely applying a change (reverse)) voltage application process, forward and Reverse each curve) to find AVfb (Vfb hysteresis). The reason why the CV curve change is added is because the voltage is applied, and the hole is trapped. As the voltage is changed, the Vfb hysteresis is larger, and the SiN film 70 shows good writing characteristics. This test is for the voltage range of the test in Fig. 8, and the measurement data is ΔνΠί, and the evaluation data is written. Test Example 1: In this test, the SiN film 70 is formed into a film by 1-V) plasma CVD + 〇 2 gas flow (1 time 1 embodiment of the same experimental data. First of all, the test device.

In addition, the horizontal axis of Fig. 9 is the data writing time, and the scales "1 En" and "1Ε + η" (η is a number) mean "lxi〇_n" and "ixi〇n" respectively (the same applies to Fig. 11). ). When the 〇2 gas flow is performed in about half of the target film thickness (near the center in the film thickness direction), a higher Δνα is exhibited as compared with the tantalum nitride film produced by the normal plasma CVD in which oxygen introduction is not performed at all. On the other hand, when the 02 gas flow is performed before and after the formation of the tantalum nitride film, or when the oxygen introduction is performed in the entire section, the tantalum nitride film produced by the normal plasma CVD in which oxygen is not introduced at all is compared with Δνη. There is almost no difference. The effect of the implementation of the 〇2 gas flow on the trap distribution in the tantalum nitride film will be described with reference to FIGS. 10A to 10C. Fig. 10A is a case where plasma CVD is performed under normal conditions to form a tantalum nitride film -31 - 201107521, and Fig. 10B is a case where a 02 gas gas is flowed in the middle of a plasma CVD process to form a tantalum nitride film. 10C is a distribution model of traps in the tantalum nitride film when the SiN film 70 is formed immediately before the film formation and immediately after the film formation (two times in total), and the SONOS is formed in the same manner as in FIG. A pattern displayer in the energy band diagram of the constructed laminate. In addition, Fig. 10B is a case where the film formation of the SiN film 70 is divided into two, and the gas flow of the helium gas is performed once. The symbol meanings in Figs. 10A to 10C are the same as those in Fig. 8. As shown in Fig. 10A, when the SiN film 70 is formed by ordinary plasma CVD, the trap T is concentratedly distributed in the vicinity of the interface with the adjacent underlying SiO 2 film 60. On the other hand, when the 〇2 gas flow is performed once during the formation of the SiN film 70, as shown in Fig. 10B, the trap T is concentrated in the vicinity of the center (in the film) of the SiN film 70 in the film thickness direction. Further, when the 02 gas flow is performed twice before the film formation of the SiN film 70 and immediately after the film formation, as shown in FIG. 10C, the trap T is the Si 02 film 60 distributed on the bottom layer adjacent to the SiN film 70. Near the interface. Further, in Fig. 10C, at the interface between the SiN film 70 and the blocking SiO2 film 80, the trap generated by the flow of the 〇2 gas after the formation of the SiN film 70 is initialized when the film formation of the SiO 2 film 80 is blocked. And eliminated, so there is almost no trap T remaining at this interface. Therefore, it is conceivable that Fig. 10C in which the 02 gas flow is performed twice before the film formation of the SiN film 70 and immediately after the film formation is the same as Fig. 10A. When the laminated body of the structure shown in FIG. 10A to FIG. 10C is assumed to be a semiconductor memory device of the SONOS structure, the data is written with the potential of the substrate of the 90-32-201107521 substrate 90a as the reference electrode. The crystalline ruthenium film 9〇b applies a predetermined positive voltage. At this time, electrons are stored in the channel formation region (not shown) to form an inversion layer, and a part of the charge in the inversion layer is moved to the SiN film 70 via the Si 2 film 60 due to the tunneling phenomenon. The electrons moved to the SiN film 70 are captured by traps formed inside the material, and the data is stored. Here, the comparison of the data writing characteristics of the laminated structure shown in Figs. 1A to i〇c shows that the writing speed is fast, and the optimum writing characteristics are the ones shown in Fig. 10B. On the other hand, the structure shown in FIG. 10C in which the 02 gas flow is performed twice before the film formation of the siN film 70 and immediately after the film formation is the same as the structure shown in FIG. The configuration shown is a comparison of 'the write speed is slow, only low write characteristics can be achieved. When the 〇2 gas is introduced in the vicinity of the center of the SiN film 70 in the film thickness direction to form the structure shown in FIG. 10B, the trap distribution at the interface of the SiO 2 film 60 / SiN film 70 is formed by ordinary plasma CVD. The structure of Fig. 10A is equivalent. However, in the structure shown in FIG. 10B, the trap distribution adjacent to the interface between the Si〇2 film 60 and the SiN film 70 is distributed in the central portion of the SiN film 70 in the film thickness direction, so that Si is passed through the Si. The charge of the film 60 is easily injected into a position deeper than the film of the SiN film 70 (near the center portion). As a result, the structure shown in Fig. 1 〇B is comparable to the structure of Fig. 10A, and it is conceivable that the writing speed is fast and good data writing performance can be obtained. In addition, in the structure shown in FIG. 10C in which the 02 gas flow is performed twice before the film formation of the SiN film 70 and immediately after the film formation, the distribution of the trap T is finally the same as that of FIG. 10A, and thus the image cannot be obtained. Figure 10B [-33- 201107521 good write characteristics. As described above, the test results of the nature shown in Fig. 9 can be reasonably explained based on the difference in the trap T distribution of Figs. 10A to 10C. According to the above, it is conceivable that the introduction of the 02 gas is performed by forming a trap layer in the film thickness direction of the deposited SiN film 70 by CVD, particularly in the range of 30% to the target film thickness. It is ideal to form a trap layer when the timing of growth proceeds. Thus, the traps can be concentratedly distributed in the film of the SiN film 70. That is, the method has the advantage that the existence distribution of the film thickness direction of the trap in the film of the film 70 can be controlled by adjusting the timing of introduction of the 〇2 gas, so that the trap is concentrated in the center of the film thickness direction of the SiN film 70. Attached here is a structure in which a trap layer formed at the position is formed. The SiN film 70 having a distribution peak of traps in the film is obtained by, for example, a charge storage layer of a volatile semiconductor memory device, and data writing characteristics can be obtained.

Experiment 2-B obtained by introducing 02 gas flow, introducing oxygen into the tantalum nitride film, and tantalum nitride film of Experiment 2-C, compared with the conventional tantalum nitride film produced by plasma CVD (Experiment 2 A), or a tantalum nitride film produced by thermal CVD (Experiment 2-D), shows a particularly high AVfb. Further, in the comparison of Experiments 2-B and 2-C in which the gas flow of 〇2 was performed in about half of the target film thickness (near the center in the film thickness direction), the experiment 2 of the 〇2 gas flow was performed only once. B. Experiment 2_C of performing 〇2 gas flow twice is that AVfb is large, and traps are formed by a large number. From the above results, it is shown that the writing characteristics are better when the charge storage layer is used as the semiconductor memory device, and the 〇2 gas is flowed once or more during the plasma CVD process, preferably. More than 2 times, it is effective to form a trap layer in the tantalum nitride film. It is preferable to carry out the gas flow of the 〇2 gas at the stage of film formation in the range of 30 to 70% of the target film thickness of the ruthenium nitride film. -37-201107521 [Application Example of Manufacturing Semiconductor Memory Device] Next, an example of a method of manufacturing the method of manufacturing a tantalum nitride film of the present embodiment to a semiconductor device will be described with reference to Fig. 12 . Fig. 12 is a cross-sectional view showing a schematic configuration of a semiconductor device 201. The semiconductor body device 201 includes a P-type germanium substrate 101 as a semiconductor layer, a plurality of green films laminated on the p-type germanium substrate 101, and a gate electrode formed thereon. 〗 〇 3. Between the ruthenium substrate 101 and the gate electrode 103, a first insulating film 1 作为, a second insulating film 1 2, and a third insulating film 1 1 3 as tunnel oxide films are provided. The second insulating film 112 is a tantalum nitride film, and forms a charge storage layer of the semiconductor memory device 201. Further, the first substrate, the first source, the drain 1〇4, and the second source of the n-type diffusion layer are formed on the germanium substrate 101 so as to be located on both sides of the gate electrode 103 with a predetermined depth from the surface. Bungee 105, between the two forms a channel formation area 1 〇 6. Further, the semiconductor memory device 210 may be formed in a p-well or p-type germanium layer formed in the semiconductor substrate. Further, although the n-channel MOS device is described as an example, it may be implemented even in the p-channel MOS device. Therefore, all of the contents described below are applicable to the n-channel MOS device and the p-channel MOS device. The first insulating film 111 is, for example, a ruthenium dioxide film (3丨02 film) formed by oxidizing the surface of the ruthenium substrate 101 by a thermal oxidation method. The second insulating film 112 is a hafnium nitride film (SiN film) formed on the surface of the first insulating film ηι. The third insulating film 113 is a ceria film (Si 〇 2 film) deposited on the second insulating film 112 by, for example, the -38-201107521 CVD method. This film 113 is a function of providing a layer (shield layer) between the electrode 103 and the second insulating film 112. The gate electrode 103 is composed of, for example, a plurality of films formed by a CVD method, and has a function as a control gate (CG) electrode. Further, 1 〇3 may be, for example, a tungsten gate electrode such as tungsten (W), titanium (Ti), molybdenum ((Cu), aluminum (A1), gold (Au), platinum (Pt), etc. The layer is formed such that tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo), giant (Ta Ti ), platinum (Pt ), etc. are formed, for example, by lowering the gate electrode resistance and increasing the operating speed of the semiconductor device 201. The gate electrode 103 is connected to a wiring J (not shown), and in the semiconductor memory device 201, the second is a charge storage region in which charges are mainly stored. At the time of formation of 112, the trapping amount and distribution of the film formation of the tantalum nitride film of the present invention can be applied, thereby adjusting the data writing performance or the data retention performance of the semiconductor memory device. Here is a representative program. A description will be given of a manufacturing example in which the present invention is applied to the semiconductor memory device 201. First, a germanium substrate 101' on which the element separation film is formed by a method such as the LOCOS (Local Oxidation of Silicon) method or the STI Trench Isolation method is formed on the surface thereof. For example, the insulating film 1 1 1 is formed by thermal oxidation. The first insulating film 1 1 1 is a Si 〇 2 film. Next, the upper surface of the first insulating film 1 1 1 is insulated by an electric radiance 3 as a resistive crystalline sand film, a gate electrode Ta), and a copper layer. The purpose of the comparison of 1 0 3), the method of titanium (gold and other layers of the edge film 1 12 2 insulating film method, the method of controlling 201 is suitable for one (Shallow (not shown to form the ί CVD device - 39-201107521 The second insulating film 112 is formed by a plasma CVD method. When the second insulating film 112 is formed, the gas flow of the 〇2 gas is performed at a predetermined timing of the plasma CVD. In the middle of the formation of the multi-well, the distribution of the trap in the thickness direction is controlled. Thereby, the writing characteristics and the readout characteristics of the body device 201 are superior, and the second insulating film 112 is formed on the upper surface of the second insulating film 112. 3. The insulating film 136 is an SiO 2 film, which can be formed, for example, by a CVD method. Alternatively, it can be formed by plasma CVD at a low temperature, and the upper surface of the third insulating film 141 can be formed, for example, by In the CVD method, a polycrystalline or metal layer, a metal telluride layer or the like is formed into a film to form a metal film to be the gate electrode 103. Next, a patterned photoresist is used as a photomask by photolithography. By etching the metal film and the third anode 113 to the first insulating film 111, it is possible to obtain The gate electrode 103 and the gate laminated structure of the plurality of insulating films are connected to the surface of both sides of the gate laminated structure, and the n-type impurity is ionized at a high concentration to form the first source and the drain 104. In this way, the semiconductor memory device 201 having the structure shown in Fig. 12 can be manufactured. An example of the semiconductor memory device 20 1 having the above configuration will be described. First, when data is written, The potential of the substrate 1 〇1 is normal, and the first source, the drain 1〇4, and the second source, the drain 1〇5 are kept at 0 V, and a predetermined positive voltage is applied to the gate electrode 103. The region 106 stores electrons to form an inversion layer, and the electricity in the inversion layer is shaped by a plurality of trapped semiconductors 113, and the sand layer electrodes are held in the shape of the device by the action of the edge film on the adjacent device 105. A part of the charged -40 to 201107521 is moved to the second insulating film 112 via the first insulating film 111 by the tunneling phenomenon. The electrons moving to the second insulating film 112 are traps of the charge trapping center formed inside the trap (trap) Captured, stored data. Read data At the time of applying the potential of the ruthenium substrate 101 as a reference, a voltage of 0 V is applied to one of the first source, the drain 10 04 or the second source and the drain 205, and a predetermined voltage is applied to the other. A predetermined voltage is also applied to the gate electrode 103. By applying a voltage in this way, the current amount or the drain voltage of the channel varies depending on the amount of charge stored in the second insulating film 112 or the amount of stored charge. The data is read out to the outside by detecting a change in the current or the drain voltage of the channel. When the data is erased, the voltage of OV is applied to both the first source/drain 104 and the second source and the drain 105 based on the potential of the germanium substrate 110, and the gate electrode 1 〇3 is applied. A negative voltage of a predetermined magnitude is applied. By the application of such a voltage, the electric charge held in the second insulating film 112 is extracted to the channel formation region 106 of the ruthenium substrate 101 via the first insulating film 111. As a result, the semiconductor memory device 201 returns to the erased state in which the amount of electrons stored in the second insulating film 1 12 is low. Further, the method of writing, reading, and erasing information of the semiconductor memory device 201 is not limited, and writing 'reading and erasing' can be performed using a different method from the above. In addition, in FIG. 12, a structure having the second insulating film 112 is taken as an example of a charge storage region. However, the method of the present invention can also be applied to a structure in which two or more layers of a tantalum nitride film are stacked as a semiconductor of a charge storage layer. When the body is installed. The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications can be made. For example, in the above embodiment, the RLSA type microwave plasma processing apparatus is used for plasma processing, but other types of plasma processing apparatuses such as ICP plasma method, ECR plasma method, surface wave plasma method, and magnetron control can be used. Other plasma processing devices such as tube plasma.
