Abstract:
A substrate processing apparatus, comprising:a heating section configured to heat a substrate; a first cooling section configured to cool the substrate heated by said heating section to a temperature not more than a first temperature; a second cooling section configured to cool the substrate cooled by said first cooling section to a second temperature lower than the first temperature; a substrate processing section configured to perform coating processing of a coating solution for the substrate cooled in said second cooling section; and a first transfer unit configured to transfer the substrate between said first cooling section, said second cooling section, and said substrate processing section, wherein said substrate processing section and said second cooling section are arranged in a processing block whose temperature is controlled, and said first transfer unit, said heating section and said first cooling section are arranged in a transfer block, and said second cooling section is used exclusively for said substrate processing section.
