Method of processing substrate, substrate processing apparatus, recording medium, and method of manufacturing semiconductor device

Abstract

There is provided a technique that includes: forming an oxide film containing a central atom X of a precursor on a substrate by performing a cycle a predetermined number of times, the cycle including non-simultaneously performing: (a) forming a first layer containing a component in which a first group is bonded to the central atom X on the substrate by supplying the precursor having a molecular structure in which the first group and a second group are bonded to the central atom X and having a bonding energy between the first group and the central atom X that is higher than a bonding energy between the second group and the central atom X, to the substrate; and (b) forming a second layer containing the central atom X by supplying an oxidizing agent to the substrate to oxidize the first layer, wherein in (a), the precursor is supplied under a condition in which the second group is desorbed and the first group is not desorbed from the central atom X contained in the precursor and the central atom X is adsorbed on a surface of the substrate in a state where the second group is desorbed from the central atom X and the bonding of the first group and the central atom X is maintained.
