    摘要: A developer nozzle is moved from a periphery of a wafer toward the central portion while an exposed substrate held at a spin chuck is being rotated about a vertical axis and while a developing solution is being discharged from the developer nozzle, and this way the developing solution is supplied to the surface of the wafer, the developer nozzle having a slit-like ejection port whose longitudinal direction is oriented to the direction perpendicular to the radial direction of the wafer. The movement speed of the nozzle is higher than a case where a nozzle with a small-diameter circular nozzle is used, and this enables a development time to be reduced. Further, the thickness of a developing solution on a substrate can be reduced, so that the developing solution can be saved.

    摘要: The temperature of a developing solution is varied depending on the type of resist or the resist pattern. The developing solution is applied while scanning a developer nozzle having a slit-shaped ejection port that has a length matching the width of the effective area of the substrate. After leaving the substrate with the developing solution being coated thereon for a predetermined period of time, a diluent is supplied while scanning a diluent nozzle, thereby substantially stopping the development reaction and causing the dissolved resist components to diffuse. A desired amount of resist can be quickly dissolved through the control of the developing solution temperature, while the development can be stopped before the dissolved resist components exhibit adverse effect through the supply of the diluent a predetermined timing, whereby achieving a pattern having a uniform line width and improved throughput.

    摘要: In a developing processing of a wafer having a resist film low in the dissolving rate in a developing solution formed thereon and subjected to an exposure treatment, a developing solution of a low concentration is supplied first onto a wafer and the wafer is left to stand for a prescribed time to permit a developing reaction to proceed, followed by further supplying a developing solution having a concentration higher than that of the developing solution supplied first onto the wafer, leaving the substrate to stand and subsequently rinsing the wafer, thereby improving the uniformity of the line width in the central portion and the peripheral portion of the wafer.
