US Patent 7419919 Method of manufacturing semiconductor device

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, in which a substrate is disposed in a chamber and a fluorine-containing silicon oxide film is formed on the substrate using a plasma CVD process. The fluorine-containing silicon oxide film is formed such that the release of fluorine from this silicon oxide layer is suppressed. According to this semiconductor device manufacturing method, a stable semiconductor device can be provided such that the device includes a fluorine-containing silicon oxide film (FSG film) at which the release of fluorine is suppressed, and thus peeling does not occur.
