Abstract

See full text

A liquid processing apparatus for liquid-processing a substrate includes a substrate holding device that rotates a substrate in horizontal position, a nozzle holding device holding processing liquid and gas nozzles, the liquid nozzle discharging processing liquid from a discharge port such that the liquid is discharged obliquely to surface of the substrate, the gas nozzle discharging gas perpendicularly to the surface of the substrate, a moving device that moves the nozzle device with respect to the surface of the substrate, and a control device including circuitry that controls the nozzle, substrate and moving devices such that while the substrate is rotated, the liquid is discharged to peripheral portion toward downstream side in rotation direction and along tangential direction of the substrate and gas is discharged from the gas nozzle toward position adjacent to liquid landing position of the liquid on the surface and is on center side of the substrate.
