Abstract
The present disclosure provides a technique capable of suppressing a deviation in a characteristic of a semiconductor device. There is provided a technique includes: (a) receiving data representing a thickness distribution of a polished silicon-containing layer on a substrate comprising a convex structure whereon the polished silicon-containing layer is formed; (b) calculating, based on the data, a process data for reducing a difference between a thickness of a portion of the polished silicon-containing layer formed at a center portion of the substrate and that of the polished silicon-containing layer formed at a peripheral portion of the substrate; (c) loading the substrate into a process chamber; (d) supplying a process gas to the substrate; and (e) compensating for the difference based on the process data by activating the process gas with a magnetic field having a predetermined strength on the substrate.
