Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a metal-containing film including a first element that is a metal element and a second element by performing a predetermined number of times in a time-division manner a cycle of supplying an organic metal source gas containing the first element to a substrate, supplying a halogen-based metal source gas containing the first element to the substrate and supplying a reaction gas, which contains the second element and which reacts with the first element, to the substrate, wherein a value of film stress of the metal-containing film is controlled by controlling at least one value of a supply flow rate and a supply time of the organic metal source gas in the act of supplying an organic metal source gas.

Claims (19)

1 . A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising forming a metal-containing film including a first element that is a metal element and a second element by performing a predetermined number of times in a time-division manner a cycle comprising:

supplying an organic metal source gas containing the first element to a substrate;

supplying a halogen-based metal source gas containing the first element to the substrate; and

supplying a reaction gas, which contains the second element and which reacts with the first element, to the substrate,

wherein a value of film stress of the metal-containing film is controlled by controlling at least one value of a supply flow rate and a supply time of the organic metal source gas in the act of supplying an organic metal source gas.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the act of supplying an organic metal source gas, the act of supplying a halogen-based metal source gas, and the act of supplying a reaction gas are sequentially performed a predetermined number of times in a time-division manner.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the act of supplying a halogen-based metal source gas, the act of supplying an organic metal source gas, and the act of supplying a reaction gas are sequentially performed a predetermined number of times in a time-division manner.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the metal-containing film is a thin film formed as a hard mask for etching an etching target film formed on the substrate.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first element is any one selected from a group consisting of titanium, tantalum, tungsten, cobalt, yttrium, ruthenium, aluminum, hafnium, zirconium, and molybdenum, and the second element is nitrogen.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein, after the act of supplying an organic metal source gas and the act of supplying a halogen-based metal source gas are performed a plural number of times in a time-division manner, the act of supplying a reaction gas is performed in a time-division manner.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the film stress of the metal-containing film is controlled by controlling concentration ratios of the second element and carbon included in the metal-containing film.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the value of film stress of the metal-containing film is controlled by adjusting a ratio between a thickness of a metal-containing layer including the first element resulting from the act of supplying an organic metal source gas and a thickness of a metal-containing layer including the first element resulting from the act of supplying a halogen-based metal source gas.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the thickness of the metal-containing layer including the first element resulting from the act of supplying an organic metal source gas is larger than the thickness of the metal-containing layer including the first element resulting from the act of supplying a halogen-based metal source gas.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the value of film stress of the metal-containing film is additionally controlled by controlling at least one value of a supply flow rate and a supply time of the reaction gas in the act of supplying a reaction gas.

11 . A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program that causes a computer to perform a process including a sequence of forming a metal-containing film including a first element that is a metal element and a second element by performing a predetermined number of times in a time-division manner a cycle including;

a sequence of supplying an organic metal source gas containing the first element to a substrate;

a sequence of supplying a halogen-based metal source gas containing the first element to the substrate; and

a sequence of supplying a reaction gas, which contains the second element and which reacts with the first element, to the substrate; and

a sequence of controlling a value of film stress of the metal-containing film by controlling at least one value of a supply flow rate and a supply time of the organic metal source gas in the sequence of supplying an organic metal source gas.
