Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus for forming a layer and a method of forming the layer using the same. The apparatus includes a transfer chamber in which a substrate is transferred, a deposition chamber positioned at a side of the transfer chamber and performing a deposition process on the substrate to thereby form the layer on the substrate, and at least a de-hydrogen chamber positioned at another side of the transfer chamber and performing a de-hydrogen process on the layer on the substrate to reduce a hydrogen concentration in the layer. Accordingly, the de-hydrogen process is performed in the apparatus without unloading of the substrate from the apparatus.

Claim (Index 11):
The method of  claim 10 , wherein the de-hydrogen process is performed by at least one of an ultraviolet process in which an ultraviolet ray is irradiated onto the thin layer on the substrate to thereby break chemical bonds between hydrogen and silicon in the thin layer, and a hydrogen plasma process in which the hydrogen plasma process is performed on the thin layer on the substrate and hydrogen atoms are separated from the thin layer as hydrogen gases.
