Abstract
A diaphragm valve and a flow rate control device for a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus are configured so as to allow an increase of a valve flow rate while avoiding an increase in size of the valve. The diaphragm valve includes a diaphragm with an outer periphery being pressed and a valve seat part in a valve chamber of a body having an inflow path and an outflow path, with the diaphragm being configured to open and close the valve chamber by an ascending/descending motion of a stem. The diaphragm has a substantially-flat cross sectional form having a substantially-planar center region and a boundary region. The boundary region is on an outer peripheral side of the center region and has a radius of curvature smaller than that of the center region, and the boundary region is positioned near an outer peripheral side of the valve seat part.
