Abstract:
There is provided heating method for heating a substrate having a germanium film or a silicon germanium film formed on a surface of the substrate, the method including: loading the substrate kept in an air atmosphere at least a predetermined time into a processing container; and heating the substrate in a state in which an interior of the processing container is kept in a hydrogen gas-containing atmosphere.

Claim (Index 13):
A semiconductor device manufacturing method, comprising:\n forming a germanium film or a silicon germanium film on a semiconductor substrate via an insulating film; forming a high dielectric constant film on the germanium film or the silicon germanium film; forming a conductive film on the high dielectric constant film; and forming a channel portion comprising the germanium film or the silicon germanium film, a source electrode, a drain electrode, a gate insulating film comprising the high dielectric constant film, and a gate electrode comprising the conductive film, by etching the conductive film and the high dielectric constant film and by implanting ions into the germanium film or the silicon germanium film, wherein after forming the germanium film or the silicon germanium film, the semiconductor substrate kept in an air atmosphere at least a predetermined time is loaded into a processing container of a film forming apparatus for forming the high dielectric constant film, and the semiconductor substrate is heated at least up to a film formation temperature in a state in which an interior of the processing container is kept in a hydrogen gas-containing atmosphere.
