Abstract

A semiconductor device is prepared using an insulating film consisting of a tantalum-tungsten oxide crystal film, a tantalum-molybdenum oxide crystal film, or a laminated film where a silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride or silicon nitride film is laminated on the crystal film. The tantalum-tungsten oxide film is deposited on a substrate under an atmosphere of a mixture of the first material gas comprising tantalum, the second material gas comprising tungsten and an oxidizing agent. For improving a dielectric constant of the tantalum-tungsten or tantalum-molybdenum oxide crystal film, on a Ru substrate with (001) orientation is deposited a oxide crystal film, which is then heated in N2O plasma and subject to rapid thermal nitriding.
