PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a metallic member constituting a silicon oxide film forming device from being corroded due to moisture, and to generate the in-plane non- uniformity of the film thickness of a silicon oxide film. SOLUTION: In a method for forming a silicon oxide film, a silicon oxide film forming device provided with a processing chamber 10 and a dew drop preventing and evaporating means 40 for preventing steam from being condensed in the processing chamber 10 or for evaporating water condensed in the processing chamber is used. In this case, a substrate having a silicon layer is carried to the processing chamber 10, and steam is introduced to the processing chamber 10, and a silicon layer surface is thermally oxidized. Then, in a state that steam is not condensed in the processing chamber 10, or that water condensed in the processing chamber 10 is evaporated, the substrate is carried out of the processing chamber 10.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To form only a wet oxide film having little structural strain in the surface of a semiconductor substrate in the pyrogenic oxidation.

For this, if the combustion reaction system communicates with the oxidizing system, only a wet oxide film with little structural strain can be formed by preventing the detonating gas reaction and forming of a dry oxide film on the surface of the substrate.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a silicon oxide film forming method which is capable of reducing the formation of a dry oxide film on a silicon layer, when a silicon oxide film is formed on the surface of the silicon layer, and form a silicon oxide film superior in characteristics. SOLUTION: In this forming method of a silicon oxide film, (A) a combustion chamber 30 for forming water vapor through the combustion of hydrogen gas with oxygen gas, (B) a water vapor forming equipment 34 for forming water vapor by a method other than combustion of hydrogen gas with oxygen gas, and (C) a silicon oxide film forming equipment provided with a treatment chamber 10 for forming a silicon oxide film on the surface of a silicon layer are used. After the treatment chamber 10 has been filled with oxygen gas accompanied by water vapor formed with the vapor forming equipment 34, formation of vapor is started in the combustion chamber 30, and the silicon oxide film is formed on the surface of the silicon layer in the treatment chamber 10 by the use of the water vapor formed in the combustion chamber 30.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To decrease the formation of a dry oxide film on a surface by supplying inert gas when steam is generated in a combustion chamber by the supply of hydrogen gas, keeping the temperature, at which silicon atoms are not desorbed, forming a silicon oxide film, increasing the temperature, and further forming the silicon oxide film. SOLUTION: The substrate having a silicon layer is arranged in a processing chamber 10 of inactive gas atmosphere, wherein the temperature is maintained so that silicon atoms are not desorbed. Then, after at least the supply of oxygen gas into a combustion chamber 30 is started, steam is generated in the combustion chamber 30 by the supply of hydrogen gas into the combustion chamber 30. Until the time when the steam is supplied into the processing chamber 10, inactive gas is supplied into the processing chamber 10. Thus, the concentration of the oxygen gas in contact with the silicon layer can be sufficiently decreased before the silicon oxide film is formed by the steam. The formation of the silicon oxide film by the oxigen gas (formation of the dry oxide film) can be controlled.
