A substrate treatment method of a substrate treatment device, which includes a stage on which a substrate is mounted, a heating element provided on the stage, and a rotation mechanism that rotates the stage, includes: mounting the substrate on the stage; and performing a process on the substrate, wherein the performing the process on the substrate has a plurality of steps, and wherein each of the plurality of steps includes controlling the heating element and controlling the rotation mechanism.

Substrate treatment method and substrate treatment device

A substrate processing method includes: preparing a substrate which includes a base having an epitaxial layer formed by epitaxial growth, and an insulating film formed on the base and having a penetration portion that exposes the epitaxial layer; forming a silicon film on a surface of the epitaxial layer exposed from the penetration portion rather than a side wall of the penetration portion; and forming a metal film on the silicon film formed on the surface of the epitaxial layer rather than the side wall of the penetration portion, and causing the silicon film to react with the metal film to form a metal silicide film.

Substrate processing method and substrate processing system

A substrate processing apparatus for processing a substrate, includes a stage including a through-hole vertically penetrating the stage, a pin inserted into the through-hole, and a support member configured to support the pin. The pin has a protrusion configured to protrude from the upper surface of the stage through the through-hole, and a large diameter portion located below the protrusion and formed thicker than the protrusion. The stage further includes a lateral hole formed to extend from a side surface of the stage so as to intersect with the through-hole. The support member is inserted into the lateral hole. The support member is configured to support the pin by an engagement with the large diameter portion while the support member is inserted into the lateral hole. An upper opening end of the through-hole is thinner than the large diameter portion.

Substrate processing apparatus and stage

A substrate processing apparatus includes: a stage for performing at least one of heating and cooling on a substrate placed thereon and having a through-hole vertically penetrating the stage; a substrate support pin having an insertion portion inserted into the through-hole and configured so that the insertion portion protrudes from an upper surface of the stage through the through-hole; and a pin support member for supporting the substrate support pin. The substrate support pin has a flange portion located below a lower surface of the stage. The support member supports the substrate support pin by engagement with the flange portion. The through-hole is smaller than the flange portion. The substrate support pin includes a first member including the flange portion and a second member having the insertion portion. The first member has a sliding surface which slidably supports the second member.

Substrate processing apparatus and substrate delivery method

A sealing structure of a gas supply line assembly connected to a processing chamber for processing a substrate in a vacuum atmosphere is provided. The sealing structure includes a first pipe member constituting the gas supply line assembly and having an end surface where an opening communicating with the processing chamber is formed, a second pipe member constituting the gas supply line assembly and having a facing surface facing the end surface of the first pipe member, and a sealing member made of an elastomer disposed between the end surface of the first pipe member and the facing surface of the second pipe member to surround the opening. The sealing structure further includes a sheet-shaped porous member disposed between the end surface of the first pipe member and the facing surface of the second pipe member to surround a vicinity of the sealing member.

Sealing structure, vacuum processing apparatus and sealing method

There is provided a film forming method, including: forming a film containing silicon, carbon and nitrogen on a substrate in a first process; and oxidizing the film with an oxidizing agent containing a hydroxy group and subsequently supplying a nitriding gas to the substrate in a second process.

Film forming method and film forming apparatus

There is provided a film-forming method, including: a pre-coating process of supplying a first gas containing silicon into a processing container in which a substrate is not loaded, and coating surfaces of members installed inside the processing container, including a mounting table configured to mount the substrate thereon, with a film made of silicon; subsequently, a mounting process of mounting the substrate on the mounting table so that a back surface of the substrate is in contact with the film made of silicon; and subsequently, a film-forming process of supplying a second gas containing an organometallic compound into the processing container, and forming a film made of a metal constituting the organometallic compound on the substrate.
