Abstract
There is provided a method of processing a substrate by a substrate processing apparatus including a substrate mounting table having a refrigerant passage and a heater, and a chiller. The method includes adjusting a temperature of the substrate mounting table to a first temperature to process the substrate; and adjusting the temperature of the substrate mounting table to a second temperature higher than the first temperature to process the substrate. The temperature of the substrate mounting table becomes the second temperature by allowing the refrigerant at a first flow rate to flow from the chiller to the refrigerant passage and operating the heater. The temperature of the substrate mounting table becomes the first temperature by allowing the refrigerant at a second flow rate larger than the first flow rate to flow from the chiller to the refrigerant passage and operating the heater, or stopping an operation of the heater.
