Abstract
There is provided a substrate processing apparatus which includes: a substrate mounting table installed in a vacuum vessel; a gas supply part configured to supply a processing gas into the vacuum vessel; a vacuum-exhausting part configured to exhaust the interior of the vacuum vessel; an elevating member configured to lift up and down a substrate while holding the substrate mounted on the mounting table; and a control part configured to output a control signal to execute a first step of supplying the processing gas onto the substrate and setting an internal pressure of the vacuum vessel to a first pressure, a second step of changing the internal pressure to a second pressure lower than the first pressure, and a third step of lifting up the substrate from the mounting table after the first step and before the second step or in parallel with the second step.
