Abstract

There is provided a technique capable of improving a step coverage performance of a film formed on a substrate. According to one aspect thereof, there is provided a substrate processing method including: (a1) supplying a first process gas such that a transfer velocity of the first process gas toward an edge region of a substrate is faster than the transfer velocity of the first process gas toward a central region of the substrate; (a2) supplying a second process gas such that a transfer velocity of the second process gas toward the central region of the substrate is faster than the transfer velocity of the second process gas toward the edge region of the substrate; and (b) supplying a reactive gas toward the substrate.
