Abstract
A film formation method includes: providing a substrate including a first region in which a first material is exposed and a second region in which a second material different from the first material is exposed; forming an intermediate film selectively in the second region from the first region and the second region by supplying a processing gas to the substrate; forming a self-assembled monolayer in the first region and the second region after forming the intermediate film; removing the intermediate film and the self-assembled monolayer from the second region by heating the substrate to sublimate the intermediate film; and forming, after sublimation of the intermediate film, a target film selectively in the second region from the first region and the second region in a state in which the self-assembled monolayer is left in the first region.
