Abstract

A substrate processing apparatus for performing a substrate processing on a substrate, includes a processing chamber having an internal space to accommodate the substrate, a substrate holder that holds the substrate in the internal space and rotates the substrate, a first nozzle mechanism swingable in the internal space and discharging a first processing gas to the substrate held by the substrate holder when the first nozzle mechanism swings, a second nozzle mechanism swingable in the internal space, separately from the first nozzle mechanism, and discharging a second processing gas to the substrate held by the substrate holder when the second nozzle mechanism swings, and a controller that controls the substrate holder and the first and second nozzle mechanisms. The controller, during the substrate processing, causes the first and second nozzle mechanisms to swing independently of each other in a state where the substrate is rotated by the substrate holder.
