Abstract

A substrate processing apparatus includes: a substrate holder which holds a plurality of substrates; a processing vessel including an inner tube and an outer tube disposed outside the inner tube; a gas supply part which supplies a process gas in parallel to target surfaces of the substrates; an exhaust part which exhausts the process gas from the processing vessel through a gas outlet; an exhaust port formed in the inner tube; and a rectifying plate installed in an outer wall of the inner tube or an inner wall of the outer tube between the exhaust port and the gas outlet in a circumferential direction of the processing vessel. The rectifying plate is installed to extend upward from a position below a lower end of the substrate holder to a location corresponding at least to a lower end of the exhaust port.
