Abstract
A method of selectively forming a film on a substrate includes: a preparation process of preparing a substrate having a surface to which a metal film and an insulating film are exposed; a first removal process of removing a natural oxide film on the metal film; a first film forming process of forming a self-assembled monolayer, which suppresses formation of a titanium nitride film, on the insulating film by providing the substrate with a compound for forming the self-assembled monolayer, the compound having a functional group containing fluorine and carbon; a second film forming process of forming a titanium nitride film on the metal film; an oxidation process of oxidizing the surface of the substrate; and a second removal process of removing a titanium oxide film, which is formed on the metal film and the self-assembled monolayer, by providing the surface of the substrate with the compound.
