Abstract
A high density plasma chemical vapor deposition apparatus includes a vacuum chamber provided with an inlet and an outlet for a reaction gas; a suscepter positioned within the vacuum chamber to mount a wafer thereon, the suscepter having a wafer chuck at its upper surface to prevent the wafer from moving horizontally; a coil antenna surrounding the upper outer wall of the vacuum chamber; an RF generator for applying an RF power to the coil antenna; and a heating unit for heating the wafer mounted on the suscepter. Since the wafer is heated in advance by the wafer heating unit, which is not proposed in the conventional HDP-CVD apparatus, the previously sputtered insulation material is restrained from re-depositing. Therefore, even though a gap has a high aspect ratio, it can be filled without a void.
