Abstract: There is provided a technique that includes: (a) forming a first film containing a Group 14 element on a substrate at a film-forming temperature; (b) performing a crystal growth of the first film by performing a heat treatment to the first film at a first temperature; and (c) moving the Group 14 element contained in at least part of the first film toward the substrate to crystallize the first film by performing the heat treatment to the first film at a second temperature higher than the first temperature.

Abstract: There is provided a technique that includes: etching a portion of a first film formed on a surface of a substrate by performing a cycle a predetermined number of times, the cycle including: supplying an etching gas into a process chamber while raising an internal pressure of the process chamber in a state in which the substrate having the first film formed on the surface of the substrate is accommodated in the process chamber; and lowering the internal pressure of the process chamber by exhausting an interior of the process chamber in a state in which supply of the etching gas into the process chamber is stopped.

Abstract: There is provided a technique that includes: (a) forming a silicon germanium film in an amorphous state so as to embed an inside of a recess formed on a surface of a substrate, by supplying a first silicon-containing gas and a germanium-containing gas to the substrate at a first temperature; (b) raising a temperature of the substrate from the first temperature to a second temperature, which is higher than the first temperature; and (c) forming a silicon film on the silicon germanium film by supplying a second silicon-containing gas to the substrate at the second temperature, wherein in (c), the silicon germanium film as a base of the silicon film is crystallized while the silicon film is formed.
