Abstract: An etching control system includes a prediction device and an etching control device. The prediction device includes an updating unit configured to update, to optimize a model indicating a relationship between distribution of an etching amount within a surface of a substrate and a process parameter, which is a parameter of controlling operations of multiple nozzles configured to etch the substrate, a parameter of the model; a calculator configured to calculate the process parameter corresponding to distribution of a designated etching amount by using the model whose parameter has been updated by the updating unit; and a provider configured to provide the process parameter calculated by the calculator. The etching control device includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire the process parameter; and an operation controller configured to control the operations of the multiple nozzles by using the process parameter acquired by the acquisition unit.

Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus includes a holder configured to hold a substrate horizontally; a substrate rotating unit configured to rotate the holder; a nozzle configured to supply a fluid onto a top surface of the substrate; a supply unit configured to supply the fluid to the nozzle; and a moving unit configured to move the nozzle in a diametrical direction of the substrate. The nozzle includes a first nozzle member configured to discharge the fluid and a second nozzle member configured to discharge the fluid in a direction different from a direction in which the first nozzle member discharges the fluid. Discharge lines of the first and the second nozzle members intersect with each other at an intersection point. The supply unit includes a first and a second flow rate controllers configured to respectively control discharge amounts of the first and the second nozzle members independently.

Abstract: A substrate processing method includes a first cleaning process and a second cleaning process. In the first cleaning process, a substrate is cleaned with a first cleaning solution. In the second cleaning process, the substrate is cleaned with a second cleaning solution having a lower cleanliness than the first cleaning solution after the first cleaning process.
