Abstract
A film formation method for a semiconductor process is arranged to form an amorphous silicon film on a target substrate by CVD in a process field within a reaction container, while supplying a first process gas containing silicon into the process field, and setting the process field at a first temperature of 550° C. or more and at a first pressure. The method is arranged to subsequently poly-crystallize the amorphous silicon film by a heat process in the process field to form a poly-silicon film, while supplying a second process gas different from the first process gas into the process field, and setting the process field at a second temperature higher than the first temperature and at a second pressure.
