A first gas supply part is disposed in the top wall part and supplies a first gas toward a side on which the substrate holding part is positioned. A second gas supply part is contained in the chamber and supplies a second gas to an inside of the chamber. A control unit controls the first and second gas supply part. The second gas is a gas different from oxygen and an allotrope of oxygen. The second gas supply part has an air feeding port part which is positioned on an upward side of a holding position of a substrate by the substrate holding part in a vertical direction and is positioned on an outward side of the substrate holding part in a horizontal direction.

Abstract: The signal calculation unit calculates first, second, and third signal about an amount of blur or high frequency signal, which are related to an edge, based on a first luminance signal, a second luminance signal, and a third luminance signal, respectively. The data expansion unit expands the signals about an amount of blur or high frequency signal respectively to first, second, and third expanded signal data. A control method determination unit sets a back focus area based on a magnitude relation between the first expanded signal data and the second expanded signal data and set a front focus area based on magnitude relation between the first expanded signal data and the third expanded signal data to thereby control focus.

Abstract: A peripheral blown-out pixel counter counts the number of blown-out pixels in a block including a target pixel and peripheral pixels in image data. A G threshold setting unit sets a G threshold such that the G threshold is greater as the number of the blown-out pixels is larger. A (B?G) threshold setting unit sets a (B?G) threshold such that the (B?G) threshold is smaller as the number of the blown-out pixels is larger. A correction necessity determination unit determines that a color of the target pixel should be corrected when a G signal is determined to be smaller than the G threshold and a (B?G) value is determined to be greater than the (B?G) threshold. A color correction unit corrects at least the G signal and a B signal when the color of the target pixel should be corrected.

The phosphoric acid aqueous solution on the substrate is irradiated with infrared rays. A nitrogen gas flowing in a gas passage formed in the casing is discharged towards a position outside an outer periphery of the substrate.
