    Abstract: There are provided an apparatus and a method for providing a substrate, which can suppress any additional reaction between a developing solution and a photoresist (PR) film and prevent any PR remnants from being generated from such additional reaction. The method includes: supplying an organic developing solution onto a substrate while rotating the substrate at a first revolutions per minute (rpm); substituting the organic developing solution with a nonpolar rinse solution by supplying the nonpolar rinse solution onto the substrate while rotating the substrate at a second rpm, which is lower than the first rpm; continuing to supply the nonpolar rinse solution while rotating the substrate at a third rpm, which is higher than the second rpm; and continuing to supply the nonpolar rinse solution while rotating the substrate at a fourth rpm, which is between the second rpm and the third rpm.
