Abstract: A method for treating an inner wall surface of a treatment object uses a treatment object that is at least one of a container housing an ozone gas, a treatment container housing an object to be subjected to a surface treatment using an ozone gas and a pipe configured to supply an ozone gas. The method for treating an inner wall surface of a treatment object includes the steps of: determining whether an abnormal part is present in the inner wall surface of the treatment object or not; and distributing an ozone gas having a concentration of 10% by volume or more and 30% by volume or less and a temperature of 60° C. or less such that the ozone gas contacts the inner wall surface of the treatment object before the step of determining whether an abnormal part is present or not.

Abstract: A film forming method for obtaining a thin film by laminating molecular layers of oxide on a surface of a substrate in a vacuum atmosphere includes performing a cycle a plurality of times. The cycle includes: supplying a source gas containing a source to the substrate in a vacuum vessel to adsorb the source onto the substrate; forming an ozone atmosphere containing ozone having a concentration not less than that where a chain decomposition reaction is caused in the vacuum vessel; and forcibly decomposing the ozone by supplying energy to the ozone atmosphere to generate active species of oxygen, and oxidizing the source adsorbed onto the surface of the substrate by the active species to obtain the oxide.

Abstract: A method for supplying an ozone gas includes the steps of: supplying an ozone gas from an ozone gas source through a second channel; and switching the ozone gas to a state where the ozone gas is supplied through a first channel and supplying the ozone gas having a reduced concentration of nitrogen oxide. The step of supplying the ozone gas through the second channel includes the step of introducing a part of the ozone gas to a first vessel so that ozone adsorbability of a first adsorbent is reduced. In the step of supplying the ozone gas to the object through the first channel, the ozone gas passes through the first vessel holding the first adsorbent having reduced ozone adsorbability.
