A heating process apparatus includes a process chamber, a heat-processed object support member provided in the process chamber for heating a substrate disposed thereon, a cap for covering the substrate disposed on the heat-processed object support member, a heater for heating the heat-processed object support member, a temperature measuring unit for measuring the temperature of the heat-processed object support member, and a controller for controlling the heater. A first measuring unit measures a temperature of the cap, and the controller controls the heater so as to set the cap temperature to a predetermined temperature. A second measuring unit measures a temperature of the heat-processed object support member, and the controller turns off the heater when the temperature of the heat-processed object support member exceeds an over-heat critical temperature.

Heating process apparatus

A substrate heating apparatus having a heating unit for heating a substrate placed in a process chamber which can be evacuated includes a suscepter which is installed between the heating unit and a substrate, and on which the substrate is mounted, and a heat receiving member which is installed to oppose the suscepter with the substrate being sandwiched between them, and receives heat from the heating unit via the suscepter. A ventilating portion which allows a space formed between the heat receiving member and substrate to communicate with a space in the process chamber is formed.
