Abstract

A substrate processing apparatus includes: a rotary table provided in a processing container; a rotation mechanism configured to rotate the rotary table; recesses provided on an upper surface of the rotary table along a rotation direction of the rotary table and configured to accommodate substrates, respectively; a processing gas supply provided above the rotary table and configured to supply a processing gas onto the rotary table to process each of the substrates; a heater configured to heat the rotary table; a support configured to support the substrates in upper regions above the recesses so that the heater heats the substrates before being accommodated in the recesses; and an elevating mechanism configured to raise and lower the support relative to the rotary table so that the substrates are collectively moved from the upper regions into the recesses.
