Abstract

Abstract A blanket tungsten deposition apparatus comprises a reactor the inside of which is evacuatable, a gas inlet means for introducing a reaction gas into the reactor, mount means for mounting an object substrate to be treated, penetration-preventing means for preventing penetration of gas, disposed to cover a peripheral portion of a surface of the object substrate to be treated and having an inner diameter smaller than a diameter of the object substrate and an outer perimeter larger than that of the object substrate, and another gas inlet means for introducing a gas to a space on the periphery of the object substrate covered by the penetration-preventing means. Growth of W film on a peripheral SiO 2 portion of substrate is prevented and hence production of particles caused by peeling-off of W film is prevented.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 172 words
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising the steps of: mounting on a mount a semiconductor substrate having at least a surface portion covered with an adhesion layer for improving adhesion with tungsten and a surface portion not covered with the adhesion layer; partitioning a space on a surface of said semiconductor substrate spatially by partitioning member into a space on a first region including a substrate surface to be formed with a tungsten film and a space on a second region including at least all of the substrate surface not formed with said adhesion layer; forming a thin film of silicon on said first and second regions by introducing a silane based gas to said space of the first and second regions from respective gas ejecting holes; forming a tungsten silicide film by tungsten-silicidizing said thin film of silicon on said first region with a gas supplied to said space on said first region and further depositing tungsten silicide; and depositing a tungsten film on nuclei of said tungsten silicide.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 172 words
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising the steps of: mounting on a mount a semiconductor substrate having at least a surface portion covered with an adhesion layer for improving adhesion with tungsten and a surface portion not covered with the adhesion layer; partitioning a space on a surface of said semiconductor substrate spatially by partitioning member into a space on a first region including a substrate surface to be formed with a tungsten film and a space on a second region including at least all of the substrate surface not formed with said adhesion layer; forming a thin film of silicon on said first and second regions by introducing a silane based gas to said space of the first and second regions from respective gas ejecting holes; forming a tungsten silicide film by tungsten-silicidizing said thin film of silicon on said first region with a gas supplied to said space on said first region and further depositing tungsten silicide; and depositing a tungsten film on nuclei of said tungsten silicide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to claim 1, wherein said silane based gas is silane or dichlorosilane.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 49 words
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to claim 1, wherein said adhesion layer comprises a titanium film and a film disposed on said titanium film and formed of materials of at least one species selected from a group consisting of titanium nitride, titanium tungstenide, and tungsten silicide.
