Abstract:
1. A substrate processing apparatus that is arranged adjacent to an exposure device comprising: a processing section that subjects a substrate to processing; an interface that is arranged between said processing section and said exposure device, subjects the substrate to processing, and carries the substrate in and out of said exposure device; and a first placement section that is arranged between said processing section and said interface and in which the substrate is to be placed, wherein said interface includes a processing block for subjecting the substrate to the processing, a carry-in/carry-out block for carrying the substrate in and out of said exposure device, and a second placement section that is arranged between said processing block and said carry-in/carry-out block and in which the substrate is to be placed, said processing block includes first and second processing regions for subjecting the substrate to the processing, a first transport device that is configured to transport the substrate among said first placement section, said first processing region and said second placement section, and a second transport device that is configured to transport the substrate among said first placement section, said second processing region and said second placement section, and said carry-in/carry-out block includes a third transport device that is configured to transport the substrate among said second placement section and said exposure device.
