ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device for use in avoiding unwanted oxidation along exposed surfaces and for use in relieving etching damage is presented. The method includes step of forming sequentially a gate insulation layer, a polysilicon layer, a barrier layer, a metallic layer and a hard mask layer over a semiconductor substrate. The method also includes a step of etching the hard mask layer, the metallic layer, the barrier layer, the polysilicon layer and the gate insulation layer to form a gate. The method also includes a nitrifying step which uses a free radical is assisted chemical vapor deposition (RACVD) nitrifying process on surfaces of the layers forming the gate and a surface of the semiconductor substrate. The method also includes a step of subsequently performing a reoxidation process to the semiconductor substrate resultant that the RACVD nitrifying process is performed.
