    Abstract: An optimal development method and an apparatus of a resist formed on a half-inch size wafer. The development method is a development method of a resist formed on a wafer with a wafer size for manufacturing a number of minimized units of semiconductor devices. The method includes a first step, a second step, a third step, and a fourth step. The first step drops developer until a thickness of developer becomes maximum on the wafer whose rotation is stopped. The second step performs development while rotating the wafer. The third step supplies the developer about a half of the amount of developer of the first step on the wafer whose rotation is stopped. The fourth step performs development at a development period longer than the second step while rotating the wafer.

    Abstract: A wafer cleaner and a method therefor that efficiently cleans a wafer with a little amount of a cleaning liquid and efficiently performs a heating wet cleaning processing. The present invention includes a stage where a wafer is placed, a rotary driving unit that rotates the stage in a circumferential direction, a liquid discharge nozzle disposed facing the wafer placed on the stage and supplies a cleaning liquid on the wafer placed on the stage, and a control unit that causes the liquid discharge nozzle to supply a space between the wafer placed on the stage and the liquid discharge nozzle with a predetermined amount of the cleaning liquid to fill the space. The present invention also includes a lamp disposed on a position facing the wafer placed on the stage to heat at least an interface portion of the wafer and a cleaning liquid.

    Abstract: Provide a converging mirror-based furnace for heating a target by way of reflecting from a reflecting mirror unit the light emitted from a light source and then irradiating a target with the reflected light, wherein said target-heating converging-light furnace is such that: the reflecting mirror unit comprises a primary reflecting mirror and secondary reflecting mirror; the light emitted from the light source is reflected sequentially by the primary reflecting mirror and secondary reflecting mirror and then irradiated onto the target; and the light reflected by the secondary reflecting mirror and irradiated onto the target surface is not perpendicular to the target surface. Based on the above, a system that uses converged infrared light to provide heating can be made smaller while keeping its heating performance intact, even when the system uses a revolving ellipsoid.
