Abstract: An apparatus for accurately determining if a substrate is properly retained by a substrate-retaining mechanism. The apparatus includes a substrate-retaining mechanism to retain a wafer, a treatment liquid supply mechanism to supply a treatment liquid to the wafer, and a rotatable cup adapted to rotate as an integral unit with the substrate-retaining mechanism while covering the outer peripheral portion of the wafer. The substrate-retaining mechanism has a retaining member with two ends. If the first end retains a wafer, the second end is in an upper position. If the first end retains no wafer, the second end is in a lower position. A touch sensor is arranged below the second end of the retaining member so that, when the second end is in the lower position, the second end makes contact with the touch sensor.

Abstract: When cassettes are placed on a conveyor disposed in a cassette loader and detectors disposed on a support plate on the conveyor detect information of identification strips on side walls of the cassettes, the cassettes are judged as being loaded properly in the cassette loader. When the detectors fail to detect the identification strips, the cassettes are judged as not being loaded in a desired state in the cassette loader.
