Method of manufacturing semiconductor device
Described herein is a technique capable of improving the uniformity of device characteristics. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device may include: (a) accommodating in a process chamber a substrate having an organic film thereon; (b) supplying a metal-containing gas to the substrate; (c) supplying a first oxygen-containing gas and a dilute gas to the substrate, the dilute gas containing at least one of a second oxygen-containing gas and an inert gas; (d) performing a cycle a predetermined number of time, the cycle including (b) and (c), wherein a flow rate of the first oxygen-containing gas is equal to or greater than a flow rate of the dilute gas in one of the cycle performed the predetermined number of time.
1. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising:
(a) accommodating in a process chamber a substrate having an organic film thereon;
(b) supplying a metal-containing gas to the substrate;
(c) supplying a first oxygen-containing gas and a dilute gas to the substrate, the dilute gas containing at least one of a second oxygen-containing gas and an inert gas;
(d) performing a cycle a predetermined number of times, the cycle including (b) and (c), wherein a flow rate of the dilute gas gradually decreases as the cycle is performed or a flow rate of the first oxygen-containing gas gradually increases as the cycle is performed such that the flow rate of the first oxygen-containing gas is greater than the flow rate of the dilute gas in one of the cycle performed the predetermined number of time.
2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising (e) supplying a third oxygen-containing gas after performing (d).
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the flow rate of the first oxygen-containing gas in (d) is a first flow rate, and the flow rate of the dilute gas in (d) in is a second flow rate.
