Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus includes multiple first substrate processing devices, one or more second substrate processing devices and a transfer unit. Each of the multiple first substrate processing devices is configured to process a substrate one by one. The one or more second substrate processing devices are configured to simultaneously process multiple substrates, which are processed in the multiple first substrate processing devices. The transfer unit is configured to simultaneously carry the multiple substrates, which are processed in the multiple first substrate processing devices, into a same second substrate processing device.

Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes a transport block and a plurality of processing blocks. In the transport block, a transport device for transporting a substrate is disposed. The plurality of processing blocks are disposed adjacent to the transport block and process the substrate transported by the transport device. Each processing block includes one liquid processing unit and one drying unit. The liquid processing unit performs a liquid film forming processing so as to form a liquid film on the top surface of the substrate. The drying unit performs a supercritical drying processing in which the substrate is dried by bringing the substrate into contact with the processing fluid in a supercritical state. The liquid processing unit and the drying unit included in the same processing block are disposed on the same side with respect to the movement direction of the transport device of the transport block.

Abstract: Provided is a substrate processing apparatus including a liquid processing unit that performs a liquid processing on a substrate; a drying processing unit that performs a drying processing on the substrate in a wet state; a first conveyance unit that conveys the substrate to the liquid processing unit; a second conveyance unit that conveys the substrate in the wet state from the liquid processing unit to the drying processing unit; and a third conveyance unit that conveys the substrate before the liquid processing in the liquid processing unit and to convey the substrate after the drying processing from the drying processing unit. The first and second conveyance units and the drying processing unit are disposed on a side that faces the third conveyance unit, and the liquid processing unit is disposed on a side that faces the first and second conveyance units and is opposite to the third conveyance unit.
