Abstract:
A filling apparatus for filling a hole of a substrate with a fluid material, comprising:a scavenging section for forming a first hermetically closed chamber when brought into contact with a substrate surface and for depressurizing said first hermetically closed chamber; a fluid material filling section for forming a second hermetically closed chamber when brought into contact with said substrate surface and for stuffing said fluid material into the hole of said substrate within said second hermetically closed chamber; and shifting means for shifting said second hermetically closed chamber of said fluid material filling section to a position of said hole of the substrate after said hole of the substrate is depressurized in said first hermetically closed chamber of said scavenging section, wherein said second hermetically closed chamber is provided adjacent to said first hermetically closed chamber, said fluid material filling section comprises a supply section for supplying said fluid material onto a substrate surface within said second hermetically closed chamber and a squeezing unit for pushing said fluid material into the hole of said substrate within said second hermetically closed chamber.
