    摘要: There is provided a developing apparatus capable of achieving high throughput. The developing apparatus includes an airtightly sealed processing vessel that forms a processing atmosphere therein; an atmosphere gas supply unit that supplies an atmosphere gas containing mist of a developing solution into the processing vessel in order to form a liquid film of the developing solution on a surface of a substrate loaded into the processing vessel; and a drying unit that dries the substrate in order to stop a developing process by the liquid film. A reaction between a resist and the developing solution can be stopped. Therefore, a developing process can be performed in parallel with a cleaning process performed by a cleaning module and high throughput is achieved.

    摘要: There is provided a developing apparatus and a developing method capable of rapidly forming a liquid film of a developing solution on an entire surface of a substrate while reducing a usage amount of the developing solution. The developing apparatus includes an airtightly sealed processing vessel that forms a processing atmosphere therein; a temperature control plate that is provided within the processing vessel and mounts the substrate thereon; an atmosphere gas supply unit that supplies an atmosphere gas including mist and vapor of a developing solution onto a surface of the substrate within the processing vessel; and a first temperature control unit that controls the temperature control plate to a temperature allowing the atmosphere gas to be condensed on the substrate. Here, an inner wall of the processing vessel is maintained at a temperature at which the atmosphere gas is hardly condensed on the inner wall.

    摘要: A developing apparatus including a substrate holder that holds a substrate horizontally; means for atomizing a surface treatment liquid used to improve wettability of the substrate with a developer; a first spray nozzle that sprays the atomized surface treatment liquid onto the substrate; and a developer supply nozzle that supplies a developer onto the substrate to which the substrate treatment liquid has been sprayed. The surface tension of the atomized surface treatment liquid with respect to the substrate is lower than the surface tension of the surface treatment liquid with respect to the substrate. The atomization suppresses the fact that the surface treatment liquid gathers on a certain portion of the surface of the substrate. The surface treatment liquid can be easily supplied onto the entire surface of the substrate, and improve wettability of the substrate with the developer.
