Abstract

When forming a silicon nitride film to protect and insulate a surface on which a silicon substrate has been ground or polishing, by use of a mixed gas containing SiH 4 , N 2 , and NH 3 as a reaction gas, a film is formed by a single-frequency parallel-plate plasma CVD method. Thereby, even when the film forming temperature is made not more than an allowable temperature limit of an adhesive to adhere a support (for example, approximately 100° C. or less, which is an allowable temperature limit when the adhesive is an ultraviolet curing resin), a high-quality film without exfoliation in a CMP step of the following step and with less leakage can be formed. This high-quality film is, if being prescribed by a refractive index, a film whose refractive index with respect to a wavelength of 633 nm is approximately 1.8 through 1.9.

Claims (8)

1. A semiconductor device comprising:

a first semiconductor chip, said first semiconductor chip having

a semiconductor substrate,

one or more conductive plugs penetrating through said semiconductor substrate, and

a silicon nitride film formed on at least one surface of said semiconductor substrate,

wherein a refractive index of said silicon nitride film with respect to a wavelength of 633 nm is approximately 1.8 through 1.9.

2. A semiconductor device as set forth in claim 1 further comprising:

a second semiconductor chip with electrodes formed at positions corresponding to the conductive plugs of said first semiconductor chip, wherein said first semiconductor chip and said second semiconductor chip are interconnected via the conductive plugs and laminated.
