Abstract

To provide a process for producing a semiconductor, which can form a CVD film at a high film-forming rate with a good step coverage, good uniformities of film forming rate and sheet resistance in the in-plane region of a wafer and a good reproducibility at every wafers, and an apparatus for treating a semiconductor for the process. In a treating chamber kept under pressure of 1,000-50,000 Pa, a wafer is placed on a susceptor, and a film is deposited on the wafer by heating the wafer at 500° C. or higher by a plate-shaped heater through the susceptor, while supplying a feed gas into the treating chamber at 500-50,000 sccm through gas injection nozzles provided near the center of a shower plate provided approximately in parallel with the wafer at a distance of 1-20 mm from the wafer and kept at a temperature of 200° C. or lower.
