A method is provided for forming a silicon dioxide film using atomic layer deposition (ALD), wherein a halogen- or NCO-substituted siloxane is used as a Si source. The method includes feeding a substituted siloxane as a first reactant onto a substrate to form a chemisorbed layer of the first reactant, and thereafter feeding a compound consisting of oxygen and hydrogen as a second reactant onto the chemisorbed layer to form the desired silicon dioxide film.

Improved methods are disclosed for catalyst-assisted atomic layer deposition (ALD) to form a silicon dioxide layer having superior properties on a semiconductor substrate by using a first reactant component consisting of a silicon compound having at least two silicon atoms, or using a tertiary aliphatic amine as the catalyst component, or both in combination, together with related purging methods and sequencing.

Methods for forming silicon dioxide layers on substrates using atomic layer deposition

Provided is a method of forming a fine pattern, in which a silicon oxide layer is formed on a photoresist pattern and dry etching is performed on the resultant structure. According to the method, a photoresist pattern is formed on a material layer on which a fine pattern is to be formed, a silicon oxide layer is conformally deposited on the photoresist pattern without damaging the photoresist pattern, and dry etching is performed on a lower layer. During the dry etching, spacers are formed along the sidewalls of the photoresist pattern, and then, a polymer layer is formed on the photoresist pattern. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the thinning of the photoresist pattern so that a desired pattern can be obtained, and further, to prevent striation or wiggling from occurring on the patterned material layer.

Provided are a semiconductor device having an etch stopper formed of a nitride film by low temperature atomic layer deposition which can prevent damage to a semiconductor substrate and a method for fabricating the semiconductor device. Damage to the semiconductor substrate under the etch stopper composed of a second nitride film can be prevented by forming a first nitride film using high temperature LPCVD on the semiconductor substrate, forming the etch stopper including the second nitride film by low temperature ALD on the first nitride film, and removing the second nitride film by dry etching, thus taking advantage of the different etch selectivities of the first nitride film and the second nitride film.
