  • Publication number: 20240071793
    Abstract: In a substrate processing apparatus according to the present invention, a heating mechanism for heating a substrate includes a gas discharge nozzle arranged in an internal space, a heater attached to an outer wall of a chamber, and a pipe feeding to the discharge nozzle. An observing mechanism includes a light source part and an image pickup part which are arranged at a separation position away from an attachment portion in the outer wall of the chamber. Thus, the light source part and the image pickup part become less susceptible to an effect of heat generated by the heater. In other words, it is possible to prevent the reduction in the observation accuracy due to an effect of temperature change.
