Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory device includes alternately stacking sacrificial layers and interlayer insulating layers over a lower structure, forming a slit passing through the sacrificial layers and the interlayer insulating layers, removing the sacrificial layers through the slit through a wet etching process, and removing, through a dry etching process, a byproduct that is produced at ends of the interlayer insulating layers during the wet etching process.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for treating a substrate with liquid are disclosed. The substrate treating apparatus comprises a substrate supporting unit for supporting the substrate, a liquid supply unit for supplying a liquid to the substrate supported on the substrate supporting unit, and a controller for controlling the liquid supply unit, wherein the liquid supply unit comprises a first nozzle for supplying a first liquid and a second nozzle for supplying a second liquid, and a second area where the second liquid is supplied on the substrate is provided within a first area where the first liquid is supplied on the substrate. The first liquid and the second liquid supplied with a hydrophobic film are discharged with different ways from each other. Thereby, particles with various sizes may be removed depending on each discharge methods.

Abstract: An apparatus for treating a substrate includes an injecting member having a first nozzle configured to supply a first chemical to the substrate that is mounted on the supporting unit, and a second nozzle configured to supply a second chemical, which is different from the first chemical, to the substrate that is mounted on the supporting unit, and a controller configured to supply the first chemical before supplying the second chemicals and to control the first chemical, which is variable according to a type of thin film on the substrate mounted on the supporting unit, to be supplied.

Abstract: Provided is a method for treating a substrate which removes particle within a concave portion on a substrate having a thin film on which a pattern having the concave portion on its upper surface is formed. The substrate treating method according the present invention comprises a penetration step for penetrating a treatment liquid containing supercritical organic chemical solution into the concave portion; and a heating step for heating the substrate after the penetration step.
