Method of manufacturing semiconductor device, substrate processing apparatus, and recording medium
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided. The method includes forming a film on a substrate by causing a first precursor and a second precursor to intermittently react with each other by repeating a cycle a plurality of times, the cycle alternately performing supplying the first precursor, which satisfies an octet rule and has a first pyrolysis temperature, to the substrate and supplying the second precursor, which does not satisfy the octet rule and has a second pyrolysis temperature lower than the first pyrolysis temperature, to the substrate. In the act of forming the film, a supply amount of the first precursor is set larger than a supply amount of the second precursor.
