METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND SUBSTRATE PROCESSING APPARATUS
Provided is a technique of adjusting a work function. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a film having a predetermined thickness and containing a first metal element, carbon and nitrogen on a substrate by: (a) forming a first layer containing the first metal element and carbon by supplying a metal-containing gas containing the first metal element and a carbon-containing gas to the substrate M times and (b) forming a second layer containing the first metal element, carbon and nitrogen by supplying a nitrogen-containing gas to the substrate having the first layer formed thereon N times to nitride the first layer, wherein M and N are selected in a manner that a work function of the film has a predetermined value (where M and N are natural numbers).
1 . A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising forming a film having a predetermined thickness and containing a first metal element, carbon and nitrogen on a substrate by: (a) forming a first layer containing the first metal element and carbon by supplying a metal-containing gas containing the first metal element and a carbon-containing gas to the substrate M times and (b) forming a second layer containing the first metal element, carbon and nitrogen by supplying a nitrogen-containing gas to the substrate having the first layer formed thereon N times to nitride the first layer, wherein M and N are selected in a manner that a work function of the film has a predetermined value (where M and N are natural numbers).
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first metal element comprises one selected from the group consisting of tantalum, cobalt, tungsten, molybdenum, ruthenium, yttrium, lanthanum, zirconium and hafnium.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the metal-containing gas comprises one selected from the group consisting of TiCl 4 and TaCl 4 .
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the carbon-containing gas comprises Hf[C 5 H 4 (CH 3 )] 2 (CH 3 ) 2 .
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the carbon-containing gas comprises a second metal element different from the first metal element.
6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the second metal element comprises hafnium.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the work function of the film is increased by selecting M greater than N.
8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein a concentration of carbon in the film is controlled by selecting M and N to adjust the work function of the film to be the predetermined value.
9 . A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising: forming a metal film containing carbon and nitrogen in a predetermined ratio on a substrate by: (a) forming a first layer containing a metal element and one of carbon and nitrogen M times and (b) forming a second layer containing the metal element, nitrogen and carbon N times, wherein (a) and (b) are alternately performed L times (where M, N and L are natural numbers).
