  • Publication number: 20220347641
    Abstract: A chemical liquid preparation method of preparing a chemical liquid for treating a film formed on a substrate, including a gas dissolving process in which an oxygen-containing gas and an inert-gas-containing gas are dissolved in the chemical liquid by supplying the oxygen-containing gas which contains oxygen gas and the inert-gas-containing gas which contains an inert gas to a chemical liquid, wherein in the gas dissolving process, a dissolved oxygen concentration in the chemical liquid is adjusted by setting a mixing ratio between the oxygen-containing gas and the inert-gas-containing gas supplied to the chemical liquid as a mixing ratio corresponding to a predetermined target dissolved oxygen concentration.

  • Patent number: 7615118
    Abstract: In a substrate processing apparatus of the present invention, when substrates are loaded into a chamber, a frame part formed integral with a substrate holding part is interposed between the chamber and a cover, thereby sealing the interior of the chamber. When the substrates are unloaded to above the chamber, the chamber and the cover are brought into a direct contact, thereby sealing the interior of the chamber. Hence, the interior of the chamber can be sealed satisfactorily when the substrates are loaded into the chamber, and when the substrates are unloaded to above the chamber.
