Efficient cleaning is possible although the film qualities and thicknesses of a reaction tube and a gas supply nozzle are different. There is provided a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. The method includes forming a film on a substrate, performing a first cleaning process to remove a first deposition substance attached to an inner wall of a gas introducing part, and performing a second cleaning process to remove a second deposition substance attached to an inside of a process chamber and having a chemical composition different from that of the first deposition substance. In the first cleaning process, cleaning conditions are set according to the accumulated supply time of a first process gas supplied to the inside of the process chamber through the gas introducing part, and in the second cleaning process, cleaning conditions are set according to the accumulated thickness of a film formed on the substrate.
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising:
A cleaning method for removing a film attached to an inside of a process chamber of a substrate processing apparatus which is used to form a film on a substrate by supplying a process gas to the substrate, the cleaning method comprising:
A cleaning control apparatus for a process chamber or a silicon-containing gas supply system of a silicon nitride film forming apparatus which is used to form a silicon nitride film having a predetermined silicon/nitrogen composition ratio on a substrate placed in the process chamber by alternately supplying a silicon-containing gas having a predetermined molecular weight and a nitriding source gas having a predetermined molecular weight, the cleaning control apparatus comprising:
