An ohmic electrode for an SiC semiconductor includes a p-type Si layer formed on the surface of a p-type SiC semiconductor, and a metal silicide layer formed on the surface of the Si layer, the metal silicide layer being formed from a metal silicide such as PtSi. The p-type Si layer is preferably formed from p-type Si having a carrier concentration equal to or higher than that of the aforementioned p-type SiC. Preferably, the ohmic electrode is formed as follows: deposition of Si is performed; deposition of a metal silicide is performed by means of laser ablation; laser irradiation is performed to thereby improve ohmic properties and enhance adhesion between the result deposition layer and the p-type SiC semiconductor, and then further deposition of the metal silicide is performed by means of laser ablation.

After subjected to a developing process, a rinsing process and a replacing process in this order in a developing unit 10A, 10B, a substrate W wet with an anti-drying solution is wet-transported to a supercritical drying unit 20 by a primary transport robot 30. The supercritical drying unit 20 performs a high-pressure drying process (supercritical drying process) in a dedicated manner. Accordingly, by virtue of the presence of the anti-drying solution, the substrate W is effectively prevented from becoming air-dry during the transportation of the substrate W.
