Abstract: In an auxiliary heating part for performing a preheating treatment on a semiconductor wafer, VCSELs are arranged so as to surround LED lamps arranged in a circular region. The LED lamps irradiate the entire surface of the semiconductor wafer with light, and the VCSELs which emit light of relatively high directivity irradiate a peripheral portion of the semiconductor wafer where a temperature decrease is prone to occur with the light. A common power supply circuit is provided for the LED lamps and VCSELs that irradiate the peripheral portion of the semiconductor wafer with light. Increases in size and costs of power supply circuitry are suppressed because the single power supply circuit supplies power to the two different types of light sources to collectively control the two different types of light sources.
