    Abstract: A transport apparatus includes a hand, a drive mechanism, a cover member, and a gas supply member. The hand is configured to hold a wafer. The drive mechanism is configured to transport the wafer by moving the hand. The cover member has an opposing surface opposed to a surface of the wafer held by the hand and is formed with a plurality of holes opened in the opposing surface. The gas supply member is configured to supply an inert gas to the surface of the wafer via the plurality of holes of the cover member. The plurality of holes are formed in the opposing surface so that an opening ratio of an outer peripheral portion of the opposing surface is higher than an opening ratio of a central portion of the opposing surface.

    Abstract: A cleaning apparatus includes: a cleaning tank that defines a cleaning space for cleaning a wafer; a wafer rotation mechanism that is arranged inside the cleaning tank and holds and rotates the wafer; a cleaning member that contacts and cleans a surface of the wafer, is rotatable around a central axis extending in a lateral direction, and has a length in an axial direction longer than a radius of the wafer; a swing mechanism that swings the cleaning member around a swing axis located inside the cleaning tank to move the cleaning member from a retracted position outside of the wafer to a cleaning position directly above the wafer; a second cleaning means that cleans the surface of the wafer; and a second swing mechanism that swings the second cleaning means around a second swing axis located inside the cleaning tank to pass directly above a center of the wafer.

    Abstract: A polishing apparatus is provided. The polishing apparatus includes: a polishing unit configured to polish a substrate by bringing a polishing tool into contact with the substrate and moving the substrate relatively to the polishing tool; a cleaning unit; and a first transfer robot configured to transfer the substrate before polishing to the polishing unit and/or configured to transfer the substrate after polishing from the polishing unit to the cleaning unit. The cleaning unit includes: at least one cleaning module, a buff processing module configured to perform a buff process to the substrate, and a second transfer robot configured to transfer the substrate between the cleaning module and the buff processing module, the second transfer robot being different from the first robot.

    Abstract: A substrate cleaning device (31) includes a roll cleaning member (61) and a rotation holding portion (100). The rotation holding portion (100) includes a non-contact sealing portion (140) that is disposed between a bearing portion (130) and the roll cleaning member (61) to seal a gap between a shaft portion (110) and a housing portion (120). The non-contact sealing portion (140) includes a rotating portion (150) that is attached to the shaft portion (110) and has a plurality of protrusion portions (151) formed on a peripheral surface (150a) of the rotating portion (150) at intervals in an axial direction, and a fixed portion (160) that is attached to the housing portion (120), surrounds the plurality of protrusion portions (151), and has a gas supply hole (161) formed in an inner peripheral surface (160a) of the fixed portion (160) surrounding the plurality of protrusion portions (151), the gas supply hole (161) supplying a compressed gas (200) from a position inward of the protrusion portions (151) in the axial direction, which are disposed at both end portions in the axial direction, among the plurality of protrusion portions (151).
