Abstract
A selective metal layer formation method, a capacitor formation method using the same, and a method of forming an ohmic layer on a contact hole and filling the contact hole using the same, are provided. A sacrificial metal layer is selectively deposited on a conductive layer by supplying a sacrificial metal source gas which deposits selectively on a semiconductor substrate having an insulating film and the conductive layer. Sacrificial metal atoms and a halide are formed, and the sacrificial metal layer is replaced with a deposition metal layer such as titanium Ti or platinum Pt, by supplying a metal halide gas having a halogen coherence smaller than the halogen coherence of the metal atoms in the sacrificial metal layer. If such a process is used to form a capacitor lower electrode or form an ohmic layer on the bottom of a contact hole, a metal layer can be selectively formed at a temperature of 500° C. or lower.
