A cleaning method according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: supplying a halogen-containing gas that does not contain fluorine to an interior of a processing container that is capable of being exhausted via an exhaust pipe to perform a cleaning; and supplying a fluorine-containing gas to at least one of the interior of the processing container and an interior of the exhaust pipe to perform the cleaning after the supplying the halogen-containing gas to perform the cleaning.

Provided are a method of selectively etching a film primarily containing Si, such as polycrystalline silicon (Poly-Si), single crystal silicon (single crystal Si), or amorphous silicon (a-Si) as well as a method for cleaning by removing a Si-based deposited and/or attached matter inside a sample chamber of a film forming apparatus, such as a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) apparatus, without damaging the apparatus interior. By simultaneously introducing a monofluoro interhalogen gas (XF, where X is any of Cl, Br, and I) and nitric oxide (NO) into an etching or a film forming apparatus, followed by thermal excitation, it is possible to selectively and rapidly etch a Si-based film, such as Poly-Si, single crystal Si, or a-Si, while decreasing the etching rate of SiN and/or SiO.sub.2. It is also possible to perform cleaning by removing a Si-based deposited and/or attached matter inside a film forming apparatus, such as a CVD apparatus, without damaging the apparatus interior.

Methods and systems are provided for capless refueling system of a vehicle. In one example, a method may include cleaning a capless unit of a capless refueling system by generating vacuum in the capless refueling system and delivering compressed air to the capless unit from an electrical booster of an engine. The compressed air may be delivered to the capless unit via a two-way valve configured to control a flow path of the compressed air.

According to an example, a device comprises a sidewall and a base. The sidewall and the base define a chamber for receipt of a volume of build material comprising loose build material and a solid object generated from the build material in an additive manufacturing process. The base is not permeable to build material but permeable to a gas to allow an influx of a gas into the chamber to fluidize loose build material around the solid object in the volume of build material in the chamber to facilitate the removal of the solid object from the loose build material.

A method of manufacturing a display apparatus includes forming a first electrode on a substrate, forming a pixel-defining layer on the first electrode, the pixel-defining layer including an opening through which at least part of the first electrode is exposed, and performing a first dry cleaning on a surface of the at least part of the first electrode that is exposed through the opening. An indium-fluorine bond is formed on the surface of the at least part of the first electrode through the first dry cleaning.

A substrate processing method is provided, which includes: a sulfuric acid immersing step of immersing a plurality of substrates in a sulfuric acid-containing liquid within a sulfuric acid vessel; a transporting step of taking out the substrates from the sulfuric acid vessel and transporting the substrates to an ozone gas treatment unit; and an ozone exposing step of exposing the substrates transported to the ozone gas treatment unit to an ozone-containing gas. The ozone gas treatment unit may include a gas treatment chamber which accommodates the substrates. The ozone exposing step may include the step of placing the substrates taken out of the sulfuric acid vessel in a treatment space within the gas treatment chamber to expose the substrates to the ozone-containing gas.
