Abstract
A film forming apparatus includes: a mounting table configured to place a substrate thereon and to be rotatable around an axis; a unit provided in a first region such that its bottom surface faces the mounting table and having first and second buffer spaces therein; and a flow rate controller that independently controls flow rates of a precursor gas supplied to the first and second buffer spaces. In the bottom surface, the unit includes: an inside injection section including injection ports communicated with the first buffer space and configured to inject the precursor gas supplied to the first buffer space; and an intermediate injection section including injection ports communicated with the second buffer space and configured to inject the precursor gas supplied to the second buffer space. All the first injection ports are provided at a location closer to the axis, as compared to the second injection ports.
