  • Publication number: 20260125791
    Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus comprises a processing chamber and a gas supply portion configured in an upper portion of the processing chamber, for supplying the processing gas into the processing chamber. A plurality of substrate holding portions are configured in the processing chamber and located below the gas supply portion, for holding substrates. An exhaust portion is configured in a lower portion of the processing chamber, for exhausting gas from the processing chamber. The exhaust portion comprises a plurality of exhaust grooves, a plurality of exhaust flow channels and a shared main exhaust port. Each exhaust groove is configured with a substrate holding portion and two exhaust flow channels, to connect the exhaust groove to the main exhaust port. Wherein, the main exhaust port is located at a geometric center of a plurality of substrate holding portions, and the plurality of exhaust flow channels have the same exhaust volume.
