Abstract: Disclosed is a method of processing a substrate, including: providing the substrate into a reaction space, the substrate comprising a gap having a predetermined cross-sectional area and a depth, performing a first sub-cycle step for depositing a gap-filling material by a predetermined thickness along a surface of the gap by an atomic layer deposition method, performing a second sub-cycle step for forming a deposition inhibiting region in an upper region of the gap using a deposition inhibitor and repeating a super-cycle such that a cross-sectional area of an inlet region of the gap remains greater than that of a lower region thereof located below the inlet region, the super-cycle comprising at least one the first sub-cycle and at least one the second sub-cycle, wherein the gap is filled without an occurrence of a void in the gap. Further, a substrate processing method for controlling a position of the void in the gap using the disclosed method above is disclosed.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a layer structure in a trench includes: simultaneously forming a dielectric film containing a Si—N bond on an upper surface, and a bottom surface and sidewalls of the trench, wherein a top/bottom portion of the film formed on the upper surface and the bottom surface and a sidewall portion of the film formed on the sidewalls are given different chemical resistance properties by bombardment of a plasma excited by applying voltage between two electrodes between which the substrate is place in parallel to the two electrodes; and substantially removing the sidewall portion of the film by wet etching which removes the sidewall portion of the film more predominantly than the top/bottom portion according to the different chemical resistance properties.

Abstract: An air gap forming method of forming an air gap in a gap structure having an upper surface, a lower surface, and a sidewall connecting the upper and lower surface, includes: repeatedly performing a selective deposition cycle, wherein the selective deposition cycle includes supplying a deposition inhibitor onto a substrate including the gap structure; and selectively forming a material layer on the upper surface compared to the sidewall.
