Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, includes: forming a film containing a predetermined element on a substrate by performing a cycle a predetermined number of times, the cycle including: supplying a first precursor containing the predetermined element and a halogen group to the substrate; supplying a second precursor containing the predetermined element and an amino group to the substrate; and supplying a reducing agent not containing halogen, nitrogen and carbon to the substrate.

Claims (31)

1. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising:

forming a film consisting of a predetermined element on a substrate by performing a cycle a predetermined number of times, the cycle including:

supplying a first precursor containing the predetermined element and a halogen group to the substrate;

supplying a second precursor containing the predetermined element and an amino group to the substrate; and

supplying a reducing agent not containing halogen, nitrogen and carbon to the substrate,

wherein the act of forming the film consisting of the predetermined element includes:

forming a first layer containing the predetermined element on the substrate by performing the act of supplying the first precursor and the act of supplying the second precursor, wherein the halogen group of the first precursor and the amino group of the second precursor react to form a reaction product to be removed from the first layer; and

forming a second layer consisting of the predetermined element on the substrate by supplying the reducing agent to modify the first layer.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein

the first layer contains the predetermined element and halogen on the substrate during the act of forming the first layer, and

the halogen contained in the first layer is separated during the act of forming the second layer.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein

the first layer containing the predetermined element is formed on the substrate by alternately performing the act of supplying the first precursor and the act of supplying the second precursor by a predetermined number of times during the act of forming the first layer.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein

the first layer containing the predetermined element and halogen is formed on the substrate by alternately performing the act of supplying the first precursor and the act of supplying the second precursor by a predetermined number of times during the act of forming the first layer.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein

the first layer containing the predetermined element is formed on the substrate by performing a set of the act of supplying the first precursor and the act of supplying the second precursor by a predetermined number of times during the act of forming the first layer.

6. The method of claim 3 , wherein

the first layer containing the predetermined element and halogen is formed on the substrate by performing a set of the act of supplying the first precursor and the act of supplying the second precursor by a predetermined number of times during the act of forming the first layer.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second precursor contains one or more amino groups in one molecule thereof.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second precursor contains one amino group in one molecule thereof.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined element includes a semiconductor element or a metal element.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined element includes silicon.

11. A method of processing a substrate, comprising:

forming a film consisting of a predetermined element on a substrate by performing a cycle a predetermined number of times, the cycle including:

supplying a first precursor containing the predetermined element and a halogen group to the substrate;

supplying a second precursor containing the predetermined element and an amino group to the substrate; and

supplying a reducing agent not containing halogen, nitrogen and carbon to the substrate,

wherein the act of forming the film consisting of the predetermined element includes:

forming a first layer containing the predetermined element on the substrate by performing the act of supplying the first precursor and the act of supplying the second precursor, wherein the halogen group of the first precursor and the amino group of the second precursor react to form a reaction product to be removed from the first layer; and

forming a second layer consisting of the predetermined element on the substrate by supplying the reducing agent to modify the first layer.
