    Abstract: A degassing module mounted in an intermediate position of a delivery pipe includes a fluid passage formed of a gas-permeable film material. The fluid passage is enclosed in a gas-tight vacuum chamber. A degassing pipe is connected to the vacuum chamber. The degassing pipe has a switch valve for breaking a communication between a sealed space in the vacuum chamber and a vacuum source, thereby forming a closed section including part of the degassing pipe and the sealed space in the vacuum chamber. A reduced quantity of solvent evaporates from a treating solution flowing through the fluid passage of the degassing module, and passes in the form of solvent vapor through the gas-permeable film material into the sealed space of the vacuum chamber. This minimizes change in the concentration and temperature of the treating solution flowing through the degassing module. The degassing pipe has a trap formed in an intermediate position thereof. A liquid level sensor detects the treating solution collected in a predetermined quantity in the trap. An alarm is given in response to a detection signal from the sensor. When the fluid passage of the degassing module is broken, the abnormality is detected reliably to avoid inconveniences due to a decrease in the degassing capability of the degassing module.

    Abstract: A heat treatment apparatus and a substrate processing apparatus having the heat treatment apparatus incorporated therein are provided. Nitrogen gas flowing through a gas inlet (16) into a chamber (15) is diffused by a diffusion filter (18) to produce a uniform laminar flow in a horizontal direction, and the laminar flow exits from the chamber (15) through an opening (41) to prevent outside air from entering the chamber (15), thereby maintaining a low oxygen concentration atmosphere within the chamber (15). Performing heat treatment upon a substrate by a heater (30) within the chamber (15) prevents oxygen molecules from being introduced into a film on the substrate to provide a low dielectric constant of the film. Within the chamber (15), the substrate (W) held on a transport arm (60) in which a coolant is circulated is rapidly cooled down. Thus, processing time is shortened, and high processing efficiency is provided. Therefore, the heat treatment apparatus can form the predetermined film having a low dielectric constant and provide high processing efficiency.

    Abstract: Holes having a variety of shapes exist on a surface of a substrate. When pure water is supplied on the substrate in a rinsing process, part of the pure water enters the holes. The pure water which have entered the holes can be hardly shaken off even though the substrate is rotated at a high speed. Therefore, HFE is held on the substrate so as to form an HFE layer after the rinsing process. In this case, the HFE enters the holes while the pure water emerges from the holes to the upper surface of the HFE due to a difference in specific gravity between the pure water and the HFE. Thus, the pure water is reliably prevented from remaining in the holes.
