20090120787METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A barrier film of a semiconductor device is formed. The present invention forms a middle layer having copper as a main component and including a predetermined quantity of diffusible metal with the addition of a reaction gas, by sputtering an alloy target having copper as a main component with the addition of a diffusible metal, while supplying a reaction gas including oxygen or nitrogen. Since contents of the diffusible metal are accurately controlled when heating the middle layer, the barrier film is certainly formed. Additionally, the reaction gas is added to the middle layer so that the reactivity of the diffusible metal becomes high; and accordingly, it is possible to form the barrier film at a heating temperature lower than the conventional art.05-14-2009
20100068880SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE MANUFACTURING METHOD AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE MANUFACTURING APPARATUS - A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device that improves the reliability of a metal cap layer and productivity. The method includes an insulation layer step of superimposing an insulation layer (03-18-2010
20100089533ASHING APPARATUS - Disclosed is an ashing apparatus wherein decrease in processing efficiency is suppressed. Specifically, a shower plate is arranged to face a substrate stage on which a substrate is placed, and diffuses oxygen radicals supplied into a chamber. A metal blocking plate is arranged between the shower plate and the substrate stage and has a through hole through which oxygen radicals pass. In addition, the metal blocking plate has a first layer, which is made of a metal same as the one exposed in the substrate, on the surface facing the substrate.04-15-2010

20090238968Method for Producing Component for Vacuum Apparatus, Resin Coating Forming Apparatus and Vacuum Film Forming System - The object of this invention is to provide a method for producing a component for vacuum apparatus and a resin coating forming apparatus capable of easily forming a resin coating on an internal flow path complex in shape.09-24-2009
20090314636CAPACITIVE-COUPLED MAGNETIC NEUTRAL LOOP PLASMA SPUTTERING SYSTEM - A capacitive-coupled magnetic neutral line plasma sputtering system having such a structure that the utilization efficiency of a target can be increased drastically by sputtering the target uniformly, distribution of magnetic lines of force is vertical and uniform in the vicinity of the substrate, and charge up does not take place. The capacitive-coupled magnetic neutral line plasma sputtering system comprises a vacuum chamber (12-24-2009
20100068891METHOD OF FORMING BARRIER FILM - A barrier film made of a ZrB03-18-2010
20100180819FILM-FORMING APPARATUS - In a film-forming apparatus in which two or more gases are used, a uniform film is formed. In a film-forming apparatus provided with a film-forming chamber and a shower head, the shower head is provided with a material gas diffusion chamber and a reactive gas diffusion chamber. A gas passage which communicates the material gas diffusion chamber and a material gas introduction pipe is constituted into multi-stages of one stage or more. Each stage has a gas passage represented by 2n-1 (where n is the number of stages). The first-stage gas passage has connected to the center thereof the material gas introduction pipe. Each of second-stage and subsequent-stage gas passages has connected to the center thereof connection holes which are provided on both ends of the previous-stage gas passages so as to be in communication with the previous-stage gas passages. Each of the final-stage gas passages is connected to the material gas diffusion chamber by connection holes formed on both ends of each of the gas passages.07-22-2010
20100270654SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME, DRY-ETCHING PROCESS, METHOD FOR MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS, AND ETCHING APPARATUS - A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprises dry-etching a thin film using a resist mask carrying patterns in which at least one of the width of each pattern and the space between neighboring two patterns ranges from 32 to 130 nm using a halogenated carbon-containing compound gas with the halogen being at least two members selected from the group consisting of F, I and Br. The ratio of at least one of I and Br is not more than 26% of the total amount of the halogen atoms as expressed in terms of the atomic compositional ratio to transfer the patterns onto the thin film. Such etching of a thin film avoids causing damage to the resist mask used. The resulting thin film carrying the transferred patterns is used as a mask for subjecting the underlying material to dry-etching.10-28-2010

20080202423VACUUM FILM-FORMING APPARATUS - A vacuum film-forming apparatus comprising substrate stages; vacuum chamber-forming containers opposed to the stages; a means for moving the substrate between the stages; and gas-introduction means connected to every containers, wherein one of the stage and the container is ascended or descended towards the other to bring the upper face of the stage and the opening of the container into contact with one another so that vacuum chambers can be formed and that a raw gas and/or a reactant gas can be introduced into each space of the chamber through each gas-introduction means to carry out either the adsorption or reaction step for allowing the raw gas to react with the reactant gas. The apparatus permits the independent establishment of process conditions for the adsorption and reaction processes and the better acceleration of the reaction between raw and reactant gases to give a film having excellent quality and the apparatus can be manufactured at a low cost.08-28-2008
20090102025Semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same, dry-etching process, method for making electrical connections, and etching apparatus - A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprises dry-etching a thin film using a resist mask carrying patterns in which at least one of the width of each pattern and the space between neighboring two patterns ranges from 32 to 130 nm using a halogenated carbon-containing compound gas with the halogen being at least two members selected from the group consisting of F, I and Br.
