Description
成膜装置10により基板Wを処理する場合には、まず、ロボットアームといった搬送装置により、Si基板Wが、ゲートバルブGを介して載置台14の基板載置領域14a上に搬送される。そして、載置台14が駆動機構24により回転され、基板Wが載置されている基板載置領域14aが第2の領域R2を基点として回転移動される。
次いで、基板Wが窒化される。具体的には、ガス供給部22bにより第2の領域R2に窒素を含む反応ガスが供給され、マイクロ波発生器48からのマイクロ波がアンテナ22aを介して第2の領域R2に供給される。これにより、第2の領域R2では反応ガスのプラズマが生成される。この反応ガスのプラズマにより、基板Wの表面が窒化される。
次いで、載置台14の回転に伴い、基板Wは第1の領域R1内に移動する。第1の領域R1においては、DCSといった前駆体ガスがガス供給部16によって供給されている。これにより、前駆体ガスに含まれるSiが基板W上に化学的に又は物理的に吸着される。
次いで、載置台14の回転に伴い、基板Wは第1の領域R1と第2の領域R2との間を通過する。このとき、基板Wは、ガス供給部20によって供給されるパージガスに晒される。これにより、基板Wに過剰に化学吸着しているSiを含有する前駆体ガスが取り除かれる。
次いで、載置台14の回転に伴い、基板Wは第2の領域R2内に移動する。第2の領域R2には、ガス供給部22bにより窒素を含む反応ガスが供給され、マイクロ波発生器48からのマイクロ波がアンテナ22aを介して供給されている。したがって、第2の領域R2には反応ガスのプラズマが生成されている。この反応ガスのプラズマにより、基板Wの表面に化学吸着した前駆体ガスが窒化される。
