Abstract

A substrate processing apparatus includes: a process chamber; a rotary table provided within the process chamber so as to place a substrate on a surface of the rotary table; a first process gas supply region including a first process gas supply part that supplies a first process gas to the substrate; a second process gas supply region including a second process gas supply part that supplies a second process gas to the substrate; first and second exhaust ports provided below the rotary table; and a conductance reduction part that reduces conductance in the vicinity of the first exhaust port in a route along which the second process gas flows toward the first exhaust port through a communication space, the communication space being generated by upward movement of the rotary table and allowing the first exhaust port and the second exhaust port to communicate with each other.
