Abstract
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, according to the present invention comprises a step for forming an insulating film over a semiconductor wafer and thereafter subjecting the same to photolithography and etching to thereby define a contact hole, a step for forming an adhesive layer over the insulating film with the contact hole defined therein, a step for placing the interior of a processing chamber under an atmosphere uncontaining oxygen and subjecting the adhesive layer to heat treatment, a step for setting the temperature of the semiconductor wafer to less than or equal to a temperature equivalent to energy of such an extent as to cut the bonding between atoms which form the adhesive layer and thereafter taking the semiconductor wafer out of the processing chamber, and a step for forming an embedding film to be embedded in the contact hole.
