As a method of the sputtering, the DC power source 9 is turned on to apply a negative voltage to the cathode electrode 4 to start discharge, and plasma is generated on the surface of the Ta target 5, whereby the plating can be performed. At this time, a high frequency bias can also be applied to the base electrode 6 by the high frequency power source 13. In the above-described step B of the present embodiment, the second processing gas containing an inert gas and/or nitrogen gas is set so as to form a nitrogen partial pressure of the coating film containing α, and the plasma is controlled, thereby including The α-large coating film is formed on the substrate 7. In the above step ', the inert gas is introduced as the second processing gas into the vacuum chamber 1〇' in the first processing gas atmosphere introduced in the step 并, and the nitrogen partial pressure in the vacuum chamber 10 is continuously reduced. The money is splashed as described above, whereby the coating film containing α钽 can be formed on the substrate 7. In the above-described step, the method of continuously reducing the partial pressure of nitrogen in the vacuum chamber 10 can be set such that when the second processing gas is set, the inflow of nitrogen gas is stopped and only the inert gas is introduced. The gas in the same amount as that of the inflowing gas is discharged into the vacuum chamber, and the pressure of the vacuum chamber 10 is kept constant, whereby the residual in the vacuum chamber 1 can be continuously reduced by switching to only the inert gas.

Thus, the nitrogen partial pressure of the vacuum chamber 10 is continuously lowered to substantially 〇, and the nitrogen partial pressure of the coating film containing the alpha button is formed by the substrate 7. In other words, when the partial pressure of nitrogen in the vacuum chamber 10 is a nitrogen partial pressure at which the TaN film can be formed, the base layer of TaN is formed on the substrate 7 by sputtering, and the continuous reduction is performed as described in 149719.doc -12 201114936. The nitrogen partial pressure continues to be splashed, whereby the formation of the α-containing coating film on the substrate 7 is started when the nitrogen partial pressure of the α-containing coating film is formed in the substrate 7. Thereafter, the partial pressure of nitrogen was further lowered and sputtering was continued, whereby a coating film containing an alpha button was formed on the previously formed coating film containing the alpha button. The partial pressure of nitrogen is finally substantially zero, but by continuous sputtering in this case, the coating film containing α钽 is continuously formed. As described above, if the α button is formed on the substrate 7, the group of layers will become the mechanism of the α group. Consider the following assumptions: The previously formed α 钽-coated film is used as the core of crystal growth. The function is made such that the button of the subsequent layer becomes a film of α钽. The thickness of the film containing the ? button formed by the film can be a desired thickness by appropriately adjusting the sputtering time, and for example, it can be formed into a film having a thickness of i nm or more and 2 Å or less.

The base layer containing TaN can be formed on the substrate 7 by sputtering as described above, and the coating film containing the ? button can be formed on the base layer. When the base layer containing the TaN is not formed on the substrate 7, the partial pressure of nitrogen in the vacuum chamber 10 is such that the nitrogen partial pressure of the coating film containing the button is formed, and the substrate is covered with a mask or the like. 7. The base layer containing TaN may be prevented from being formed on the substrate 7. The surface of the substrate 7 on which the coating film containing the alpha button is formed is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a surface of a substrate containing ruthenium. The surface of the substrate containing the cerium oxide may be formed on the surface of the substrate as a base layer, such as a film containing TaN or the like. The second processing gas is set as described above to form a yttrium-containing button. The nitrogen partial pressure of the coating film can be clarified by the results of Fig. 2 obtained by the inventors of the present invention, etc. That is, by introducing nitrogen gas together with an inert gas as shown in Fig. 2, the following tendency can be found: nitrogen gas The specific resistance of the Ta film formed at the flow rate F of Fig. 2 becomes extremely small. 149719.doc • 14· 201114936 The horizontal axis of Fig. 2 indicates the flow rate of nitrogen gas introduced into the vacuum chamber 10 (unit is see) ° ^ 2 The vertical axis indicates that the vacuum chamber 10 is sufficiently stabilized by the flow rate of nitrogen indicated by the horizontal axis. Then, the specific resistance of the Ta film formed by sputtering is (the position is μΩ.^ρ, the thickness of the formed film is about a, and the complex base layer is TaN. According to the result of X-ray diffraction 'It can be confirmed that the film formed by the nitrogen flow rate of Fig. 2 is 5 seem or more is a film containing TaN. When the flow rate of nitrogen is 5 sccm or less, the specific resistance of the formed tantalum film is lower than that of the TaN film 'at nitrogen flow rate F The specific resistance was minimized in the range of seem.1 seem or more and 1. 〇sccm. According to the result of the X-ray diffraction, it was confirmed that the Ta film formed by the range of the nitrogen gas flow was a film containing (31 button).
