Problems solved by technology

That is to say, after the corrosive gas is heated in the reaction chamber, part of it is introduced into the above-mentioned moisture meter through the sampling pipe, but the side reaction growth is deposited on the inner wall of the sampling pipe leading to the moisture meter, and the sampling pipe may be blocked. sex
Therefore, it is difficult to constantly monitor the moisture in the corrosive gas in the process, that is, it is difficult to monitor in situ

Embodiment

[0051] First, the purification effect of the conventional purification treatment using only an inert gas and the purification treatment using a gas mixture of an inert gas and a gas with a high thermal conductivity was compared. After the moisture concentration in the gas discharged from the reactor 112 is fully purified in advance to 0.1 ppm or less, the door between the reactor 112 and the dry box 113 is opened while nitrogen gas is flowing during the actual film formation operation. 15 minutes of standard time.

[0052] Then, after the door is closed, only nitrogen gas is passed through the reactor 112 as a purge gas, and the discharge amount of water molecules in the exhaust gas is stabilized until the heating wire is heated to 120° C., and the heating of the heating wire is stopped after 40 minutes have elapsed. Heat to lower the temperature slowly. The moisture content in the exhaust gas during this baking and cleaning period was measured. figure 2 Indicates its resul...

Abstract

In order to efficiently carry out the purification treatment after maintenance, at the same time, the completion of the purification treatment can be reliably known, the time required for the purification treatment can be shortened, and the CVD apparatus can be restored. Gas with high coefficient and inert gas are used as purge gas. In the purification process before the formation of the semiconductor film, the evacuation and the introduction of the inert gas are repeated many times. In addition, in order to judge the appropriate maintenance period of the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus which performs corrosive gas processing in the reaction chamber, the maintenance period of the corrosive gas is determined according to the change of the water concentration when the corrosive gas processing is repeated.
