ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method for forming an oxide film in semiconductor devices. According to the present invention, after an oxide film is formed, interface trap charge and oxide trap charge can be reduced through a high-temperature thermal treatment process and a pre-treatment thermal process. Further, as an oxide film of a high quality whose trap charge is reduced is formed, reliability of a device is improved and variation in the threshold voltage is prevented.
