Abstract: A method for manufacturing a dielectric film having a high dielectric constant is provided. The method is a method for forming, on a substrate, a dielectric film including a metal oxide containing O and elements A and B, wherein the element A comprises Hf or a mixture of Hf and Zr and the element B comprises Al or Si, which includes the steps of: forming a metal oxide having an amorphous structure which has a molar ratio between element A and element B, B/(A+B) of 0.02?(B/(A+B))?0.095 and a molar ratio between element A and O, O/A of 1.0<(O/A)<2.0; and annealing the metal oxide having the amorphous structure at 700° C. or more to form a metal oxide containing a crystal phase with a cubic crystal content of 80% or more.
Abstract: A heat treatment apparatus including a vacuum vessel, a substrate stage which holds a substrate mounted on it, a heating unit for heating the substrate, and an exhaust unit for evacuating the vacuum vessel includes a first reflector which covers the upper portion of the exhaust port of the exhaust unit while being spaced apart from the exhaust port, and a second reflector which surrounds the exhaust port. At least one of reflector members which form the second reflector faces a direction defined from the heating unit to the exhaust port.
Abstract: In the present invention, in forming a LaB6 thin film by magnetron sputtering, the single-crystal properties in the wide domain direction in the obtained LaB6 thin film are improved. In one embodiment of the present invention, in a magnetron sputtering apparatus, parallel magnetic field strength on a surface of the substrate is set to 0.1 times or less parallel magnetic field strength on a surface of the target.
Abstract: In the present invention, in forming a LaB6 thin film by sputtering, the single-crystal properties in the wide domain direction in the obtained LaB6 thin film is improved. In one embodiment of the present invention, high frequency power from a high frequency power supply, and first direct current power after high frequency components from a first direct current power supply are cut are applied to a target, and direct current power from a second direct current power supply is applied to a substrate holder during the application of the high frequency power and the first direct current power.
