Abstract
A method of controlling a substrate treatment apparatus including a chamber, a stage having elevation pins, a gas introducer disposed above the stage and introducing a treatment gas into the chamber, a first heating source heating the gas introducer, a stage elevator moving the stage up/down, and an elevator for elevation pins moving the elevation pins up/down, is provided. The method includes supporting a substrate having an oxide on the stage; etching the oxide using a treatment gas by supplying the treatment gas from the gas introducer; moving down the stage while maintaining a position of the substrate using the elevation pins; and sublimating a reaction product produced in etching the oxide by the first heating source.
