Abstract
A method including: a plasma contact step including supplying treatment gas including a reactant gas into a chamber, activating a reactant component included in the treatment gas by generating plasma from the reactant component by applying high-frequency power, and bringing the treatment gas including the reactant component activated into contact with the surface of the substrate, in which in the plasma contact step, a first plasma generation condition in which stable plasma is generated by applying high-frequency power of a first power level while supplying treatment gas of a first concentration is changed to a second plasma generation condition in which a desired thin film is obtained by performing at least one of increasing the high-frequency power to a second power level and gradually decreasing the treatment gas to a second concentration, and of gradually increasing the high-frequency power to the second power level, and abnormal electrical discharge is suppressed.
