Abstract
Provided are a substrate processing method and a substrate processing apparatus for forming a low-resistance metal-containing nitride film. The substrate processing method includes: a step of providing a substrate in a processing container; a step of forming a metal-containing nitride film on the substrate by repeating supplying an organic metal-containing gas and a nitrogen-containing gas alternately for a first predetermined number of cycles; a step of modifying the metal-containing nitride film by generating plasma in the processing container; and a step of repeating the step of forming the metal-containing nitride film and the step of modifying the metal-containing nitride film for a second predetermined number of cycles.
