A processing apparatus includes a processing vessel, a gas introduction unit, a processing gas supply unit, a nonreactive gas supply unit, a vacuum pumping unit, a pressure gauge and a control unit. The control unit controls a valve opening ratio of a pressure control valve based on a detection value of the pressure gauge while making a processing gas flow to a flow rate controller of the processing gas supply unit at a constant flow rate when performing a process in which a partial pressure of the processing gas is important. Meanwhile, when performing a process wherein the partial pressure of the processing gas is relatively unimportant, the control unit fixes the valve opening ratio of the pressure control valve at a predetermined value, and operating a flow rate controller of the nonreactive gas supply unit to control a flow rate based on the detection value.

摘要:
A CVD device (100) includes a 142 process chamber (102), in the wall of which first to fourth cartridge heaters (146, 148, 150, 152) are buried. The heaters have resistance whose value increases with temperature. A heater controller (160) determines the heater resistance from the current and voltage values associated with each heater. The heater controller (160) corrects a reference resistance corresponding to a set temperature by using a correction value corresponding to the temperature detected by a temperature sensor (250), and multiplies the corrected reference resistance by the temperature distribution constant of each heater to determine the target resistance. The heater controller (160) properly controls the phase of the AC power supplied to each heater so that the heater resistance may follow the target resistance. The first to fourth cartridge heaters (146, 148, 150, 152) are thus controlled accurately.
