Abstract

A substrate processing apparatus includes a process chamber, and a turntable provided in the process chamber and including a substrate holding region formed in a top surface along a circumferential direction of the turntable. A surface area increasing region is provided in the top surface of the turntable around the substrate holding region and is configured to increase a surface area of the top surface of the turntable to an area larger than a surface area of a flat surface by including a concavo-convex pattern in its top surface. A process gas supply unit is configured to supply a process gas to the top surface of the turntable.
