Abstract: Provided are a substrate processing apparatus and a substrate processing method that are capable of maintaining an etch rate of a substrate within a predetermined range by preventing the amount of dissolved oxygen from being concentrated in a specific region of the substrate when a chemical is supplied to a center of the substrate. The apparatus for processing a substrate includes: a chamber having a processing space; a support unit for supporting and rotating a substrate in the processing space; a liquid discharge unit including a nozzle for discharging a treatment liquid onto a substrate supported by the support unit in a liquid phase; and a liquid supply unit for supplying the treatment liquid to the liquid discharge unit, in which, when viewed from above, the nozzle is spaced apart from a center of the substrate such that when the treatment liquid is supplied to the substrate rotated by the support unit, the treatment liquid is not sprayed by the nozzle at a position overlapping the center of the substrate.

Abstract: A substrate processing method and a substrate processing apparatus for removing material on a substrate are disclosed. In order to remove the material, a processing liquid including a chemical liquid and water is supplied on the substrate so that a liquid layer maintained by surface tension is formed. The material is removed from the substrate by a reaction between the material and the processing liquid. A size distribution of by-product particles formed by the reaction between the material and the processing liquid is measured by a dynamic light scattering method. A supply of the processing liquid is controlled based on the size distribution of the by-product particles.
