Patent ID: 8597429

Claim:
A semiconductor manufacturing apparatus comprising: a reaction chamber including a gas supply inlet and a gas exhaust outlet, and into which a wafer is to be introduced; a process gas supply mechanism that supplies process gas into the reaction chamber from the gas supply inlet of the reaction chamber; a wafer retaining member that is arranged in the reaction chamber and that retains the wafer; a heater that is arranged in the reaction chamber and that heats the wafer retained by the wafer retaining member to a predetermined temperature; a rotation drive control mechanism that rotates the wafer retaining member together with the wafer; a gas exhaustion mechanism that exhausts gas in the reaction chamber from the gas exhaust outlet of the reaction chamber; and a drain that is disposed at a bottom portion near a wall surface in the reaction chamber and that collects and discharges oily silane that drips from the wall surface.
