摘要:
When processing such as SiC epitaxial growth is performed at an ultrahigh temperature of 1500° C. to 1700° C., a film-forming gas can be decreased to heat-resistant temperature of a manifold and film quality uniformity can be improved. A substrate processing apparatus includes a reaction chamber for processing a plurality of substrates, a boat for holding the plurality of substrates, a gas supply nozzle for supplying a film-forming gas to the plurality of substrates, an exhaust port for exhausting the film-forming gas supplied into the reaction chamber, a heat exchange part which defines a second flow path narrower than a first flow path defined by an inner wall of the reaction chamber and the boat, and a gas discharge part installed under the lowermost substrate of the plurality of substrates.

Production efficiency of a substrate (in particular, a substrate on which a SiC epitaxial film is formed) is improved and formation of the film inside a gas supply port is suppressed. This is accomplished by a substrate processing apparatus including a reaction chamber configured to accommodate a plurality of substrates 14, a heating part installed to surround the reaction chamber and configured to heat the reaction chamber, and a first gas supply pipe 60 extending in the reaction chamber, wherein the first gas supply pipe 60 includes a first gas supply port 68 configured to inject a first gas toward the plurality of substrates 14, and first shielding walls installed at both sides of the first gas supply port to expose the first gas supply port 68, the first shielding walls extending toward the plurality of substrates 14 from the first gas supply port 68.
