Abstract

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided with filling a trench by supplying trichlorosilane gas to a substrate where the trench is formed. A relation between a gas concentration of trichlorosilane gas and a film formation speed includes a concentration countergradient condition in which the film formation speed decreases as the gas concentration increases. The filling of the trench is performed under the concentration countergradient condition.

Claims (11)

1. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, the method comprising:

filling a trench by supplying a single type of reactant gas to a substrate where the trench is formed, wherein

the reactant gas is of a type which decomposes into a first intermediate contributing to film formation and a second intermediate contributing to etching,

a relation between a gas concentration of the reactant gas and a film formation speed includes a concentration countergradient condition in which the film formation speed decreases as the gas concentration increases, and

the filling of the trench is performed under the concentration countergradient condition.

2. The method for manufacturing a semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein

a film formation temperature in the filling of the trench is set in a transitional range between a reaction rate determining range and a supply rate determining range.

3. The method for manufacturing a semiconductor device according to claim 2 , wherein

the filling of the trench is performed in a state where the substrate is being rotated.

4. The method for manufacturing a semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein

the reactant gas is trichlorosilane.
