- Figure 20 shows the dependence of the Hf deposition density on the Si source supply time in the second step when the first cycle of film formation is performed on the natural oxide film surface of the silicon substrate. Note that the flow rate of the Si raw material in the second step is 20 scdni. Also shown here is the Hf deposition density when only the Hf source is supplied in the third step and when a mixed gas of the Hf source and Si source is supplied.
- the amount of Hf deposition varies depending on the amount of Si raw material supplied in the second step, and when it reaches a certain amount of supply, it stops decreasing, and an amount of 6E13atom S / cm 2 is obtained. Also, in the region where the Hf deposition density stops decreasing relative to the amount of Si raw material supplied, the Hf deposition density is not affected by the difference in the source gas in the third step. This indicates that Si cannot be adsorbed to the Hf deposition site determined by supplying only the Si raw material in advance according to the deposition mechanism of the present invention described with reference to FIG.
- Fig. 21 shows the supply time of the Si raw material in the second Hf deposition amount when the first cycle film was formed on the surface of the natural oxide film of the silicon substrate and the surface of the '19 A oxide film. Indicates dependency. Note that the flow rate of the Si raw material in the second step is 20 sccm. From Fig. 21, it can be seen that the difference in the Hf deposition density on the natural oxide film and the thermal oxide film is reduced by supplying the Si raw material. This is because there are many adsorbing sites due to dangling bonds, etc. on the natural oxide film compared to the thermal oxide film, and the difference in the adsorbing sites is considered to be a cause of fluctuations in the Hf adhesion density. It is done.
- the film forming method according to the present invention it is possible to suppress fluctuations in the Hf deposition density due to the difference in the surface state of the substrate to be processed, which has been a problem until now.

- the flow rate of Si raw material in the second process Is 20 sccm, supply time is 300 sec ', and supply partial pressure is 0.05 Torr.
- the Hf adhesion density increases with the number of cycles, and it has good linearity regardless of the surface state of the substrate to be treated.
- FIG. 23 shows the dependence of the Hf deposition amount on the Si source supply time in the second step of the in-plane uniformity (R / 2X) of the Hf deposition amount in the case of one cycle of film formation on the surface of the natural oxide surface of the silicon substrate. .
- the flow rate of the Si raw material in the second step is 20 sccm.
- a uniformity of about 3% was obtained regardless of the supply time of the Si raw material, and a better uniformity was obtained compared to the conventional example.
- FIG. 24 shows the dependence of the Hf deposition density on the flow rate of the Si raw material in the second step when the first cycle is formed on the natural oxide film surface of the silicon S plate. Note that the flow rate of the Si raw material in the second step is 20 sccm. As shown in Fig. 24, the Hf deposition density decreases as the Si material flow rate increases. This indicates that the Hf deposition density can be controlled by the supply amount that can be adjusted by the supply time and flow rate of the Si raw material.
- FIG. 25 shows the dependence of the amount of Hf deposition on the supply time of the Hf raw material in the third step when the first cycle was formed on the surface of the natural oxide film of the silicon substrate.
- the Si material flow rate is 20 sccm
- the supply time is lOsec.
- FIG. 26 shows the Si source gas partial pressure dependency of the Si source supply process in the second step of the Hf deposition amount in the case where the first cycle was formed on the surface of the natural oxide film of the silicon substrate.
- the Si material flow rate is 20 sccmn and the supply time is 300 sec. It is. From Fig. 26, it can be seen that the amount of Hf deposited decreases as the Si source gas partial pressure increases.
- Figure 27 shows the case where the first cycle of deposition is performed on the surface of a 19 A silicon thermal oxide film on a gyricon substrate, and the partial pressure of Si raw material is 5 X 10_ 4 Torr (0 06 67Pa) and 0.3 Torr (40. OPa), the Hf deposition amount depends on the Si raw material supply time. As shown in FIG. 27, as the Si raw material supply time increases at each Si partial pressure, the Hf deposition rate becomes constant. Therefore, with the film forming apparatus of the present invention described above, it is possible to control the Si adhesion state, which determines the deposition site of Hf, by the Si source gas partial pressure and the supply time, As shown in Fig. 27, it can be seen that it has a large process margin with respect to the supply time, and that it can determine Si adhesion in a self-synchronous manner.
- Figure 28 shows the cycle number dependence of the amount of Hf deposited on the surface of the natural oxide film on the silicon substrate.
- FIG. 28 shows the cycle number dependence of the Hf deposition amount when the Si raw material supply step of the second step in Example 1 was not performed.
- the adhesion amount per cycle in Example 1 is 1.5E13 atoms / cm 2 , and the adhesion density can be controlled in the region of an order of magnitude lower than in the comparative example of 1.3E14 atoms / cm 2 .
- FIG. 29 shows the substrate temperature dependence of the Hf deposition density when one cycle of deposition is performed on the native oxide film on a silicon substrate. From Fig. 29, it can be seen that when the substrate temperature to be processed is in the range of 300 ° C to 400 ° C, the Hf deposition density is constant regardless of the temperature. It can also be seen that when the substrate temperature to be processed is 200 ° C, the Hf deposition density is lower than when the substrate temperature is 300 ° C. This is thought to be due to the fact that the decomposition and adsorption of the source gas on the substrate surface has decreased due to a decrease in the temperature of the substrate to be processed. In this way, it is suggested that the adhesion density can be further reduced by the temperature of the substrate to be processed.
- the temperature of the substrate to be processed can be set in the range of 200 ° C to 300 ° C. Shikashi In order to perform stable film formation considering the process margin with respect to the plate temperature, it is preferable to set the temperature range between 300 ° C and 400 ° C. ''

- FIG. 30 shows the dependence of the amount of Hf deposition on the amount of Si source supplied in the second step when one cycle of film is formed on the surface of the natural oxide film on the silicon substrate (substrate to be processed).

That is, it is considered that one molecular layer of Hf0 2 is deposited on the silicon substrate, and Example 2 shows that the density of Hf. Adhesion sites cannot be reduced by the Si raw material supply process. As a factor, the influence of oxygen contained in the Si raw material can be considered.
