A semiconductor manufacturing method includes forming a concave portion in a layer provided above a substrate from a top surface of the layer downwards, the layer including an insulation layer at least partially. The method includes forming a silicon film on an inner surface of the concave portion. The method includes exposing the silicon film to a raw material gas of metal and an inhibitor gas that inhibits growth of the metal at a first temperature, to replace a first portion of the silicon film located in an upper-end side portion of the concave portion with a first conductive film containing the metal. The method includes exposing the silicon film to the raw material gas and the inhibitor gas at a second temperature lower than the first temperature, to replace a second portion of the silicon film with a second conductive film containing the metal.
