Abstract: The present invention relates to a substrate processing apparatus for processing a substrate with a processing liquid. The substrate processing apparatus according to one embodiment includes: a support portion having a placement surface on which a substrate is placed in a horizontal posture; a processing tank configured to supply a processing liquid to the substrate and process the substrate; an elevating portion configured to raise and lower the support portion in order to lower the substrate into the processing tank and raise the substrate from the processing tank; a gripping portion configured to grip a periphery of the substrate supported by the support portion above the processing tank, and receive the substrate from the support portion; and a first nozzle configured to emit a gas onto the substrate, gripped by the gripping portion, to dry the substrate.

Abstract: An adjusting system is controlled such that an arrangement of the substrate is adjusted based on detection by a first sensor, and a second sensor is controlled to detect a characteristic point formed in advance on a plate surface of the substrate, wherein the arrangement of the substrate has been adjusted based on the detection by the first sensor. Moreover, it is checked whether a position of the characteristic point detected by the second sensor is within an allowable range, and the adjusting system is controlled to adjust the arrangement of the substrate based on the detection by the second sensor when the position of the characteristic point detected by the second sensor is within the allowable range, and the attaching/detaching system is controlled to attach the substrate to the substrate holder after the arrangement of the substrate is adjusted based on the detection by the second sensor.

Abstract: A plating system comprising a plating tank for applying plate processing to a substrate, a sensor configured to measure actual plating film thickness of the substrate, and a controller configured to control plating current supplied to the plating tank and plating time for the plate processing of the substrate within the plating tank. The controller is capable of setting target plating film thickness, plating current, and plating time as a plate processing recipe. At least one of the plating current and the plating time is automatically corrected so that the actual plating film thickness and the target plating film thickness become equal to each other, and the result is reflected in the plate processing for the subsequent substrate.
