A substrate processing apparatus discharges a hydrofluoric acid solution from discharge nozzles toward grooves formed in side walls of an inner bath. The hydrofluoric acid solution discharged from the discharge nozzles impinges upon the grooves to diffuse, thereby moving toward a top portion of the inner bath in the form of low-speed uniform liquid flows. Thus, a metal component and foreign substances generated in the inner bath float up toward the top portion of the inner bath without being agitated within the inner bath, and are rapidly drained to an outer bath together with the hydrofluoric acid solution.

Apparatus for and method of processing substrate

A substrate processing apparatus performs a chemical solution process in a chemical solution process room that is partially formed within a chamber. During the chemical solution process, the substrate processing apparatus seals the chemical solution process room, and measures the pressure within the chemical solution process room, and controls the pressure within the chemical solution process room, based on a measured value. Irrespective of location environment of the substrate processing apparatus, the chemical solution process room can be controlled to a predetermined pressure. The substrate processing apparatus also permits efficient pressure control with respect to a minimum required amount of region.

Substrate processing apparatus and substrate processing method

A substrate treating apparatus for treating substrates having a film coating. The apparatus includes a treating unit for treating the substrates with a treating solution, a drain pipe for draining the treating solution from the treating unit, a filter mounted on the drain pipe, and an ultraviolet emitting unit for the filter for emitting ultraviolet light to the treating solution flowing through the filter.

Substrate treating apparatus

A substrate treating apparatus for performing a predetermined treatment of substrates includes a treating tank for storing a treating solution, a holder for holding a plurality of substrates arranged in one direction inside the treating tank, and a bubble generating device for generating bubbles in the treating solution stored in the treating tank. The bubble generating device includes a plurality of cylindrical bodies extending in the one direction and arranged in a direction perpendicular to the one direction. Each of the cylindrical bodies is at least partly formed of a porous member extending in the one direction.
