Abstract

A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes loading a semiconductor substrate into a chamber, the semiconductor substrate including a silicon oxide film, depositing a seed layer on the silicon oxide film by supplying a first silicon source material, supplying a purge gas on the seed layer, depositing a protective layer on the seed layer by repeating a first cycle, the first cycle including supplying a base source material layer and subsequently supplying the first silicon source material, and depositing a silicon nitride film on the protective layer by repeating a second cycle, the second cycle including supplying a second silicon source material and subsequently supplying a nitrogen source material.
