Definitions
- the present invention relates to a film forming apparatus and a film forming method.
- ALD atomic layer Deposition
- the precursor of the source gas is adsorbed on the substrate surface in units of atomic layers (adsorption process), and the reaction gas is introduced in that state.
- the precursor and the reactive gas are reacted on the substrate surface (reaction process) to form a desired film.
- the adsorption process of this precursor and the reaction process of the adsorbed precursor and the reactive gas are repeated many times to form a film having a desired thickness.
- a normal raw gas, a radical ion produced by plasma decomposition, or the like is used as the reaction gas.
- a reactive gas sufficient reaction does not occur between the reactive gas and the precursor on the substrate to the extent that a film having desired characteristics can be formed. Therefore, a film containing a large amount of impurities or a film having a high specific resistance can be formed, and the problem of poor adhesion to the base layer arises.
- film forming apparatuses as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 are known. These film forming apparatuses include a catalyst chamber 3 in which a reaction gas supply means 1 is connected, a catalyst source 2 is installed therein, and a film forming chamber 5 in which a substrate mounting table 4 is installed. In these apparatuses, since the catalyst chamber 3 and the film formation chamber 5 are connected via a radical transport path, the catalyst source 2 is installed away from the film formation chamber 5, and as a result, the source gas is supplied. It is attached to the catalyst source.
- the radical transport path an L-shaped radical transport path 6 is provided in the film deposition apparatus of FIG. 1, and an I-shaped radial transport path 7 is provided in the film deposition apparatus of FIG.

This is because when the copper oxide film is irradiated with radicals, the copper oxide film is reduced and converted into a copper film, and the efficiency of reduction is measured by measuring the absolute reflectance of the film after radical irradiation. In other words, it was investigated how much radicals were transported to the substrate S and the transport efficiency. The results are shown in Fig. 3. The absolute reflectance of the copper oxide film is 9%, and the absolute reflectance of the copper film is 54%.
- the absolute reflectance of the film after radical irradiation is 38%.
- radicals are deactivated during transport, and a sufficient amount of radicals to react with the source gas does not reach the substrate, so that a desired film cannot be formed.
