- the illuminance of vacuum ultraviolet rays is detected in advance by an illuminance sensor, and the moving speed of the substrate is calculated based on the detected illuminance so that a desired amount of vacuum ultraviolet rays is irradiated.
- the DSA film on the substrate is irradiated with a desired amount of vacuum ultraviolet light by moving the substrate at the calculated moving speed.
- the substrate is heated by irradiating the substrate with vacuum ultraviolet rays, and the temperature of the substrate rises.
- the temperature of the holding unit of the transfer apparatus rises.
- the temperature of the other substrate conveyed by the holding unit of the exposure apparatus also rises. Variations in the temperature of the substrate affect the uniformity of substrate processing. Therefore, after the temperature of the substrate is lowered to a predetermined temperature (for example, 50 degrees) or less in the exposure apparatus, the substrate is unloaded from the exposure apparatus. However, since it takes time for the temperature of the substrate to fall below a predetermined temperature, the efficiency of the substrate exposure process is reduced.

Abstract
Lorsqu'un substrat est amené dans une chambre de traitement, une plaque de montage est déplacée par un dispositif d'entraînement vers une position d'attente de telle sorte que la plaque de montage se trouve dans la position d'attente à l'intérieur de la chambre de traitement. Lorsque la plaque de montage est au moins en position d'attente, la plaque de montage est refroidie par une unité de refroidissement. Le substrat est monté sur la plaque de montage à l'intérieur de la chambre de traitement. Des rayons UV sous vide sont émis par une unité de source de lumière. Pendant l'irradiation des rayons UV sous vide sur le substrat par l'unité de source de lumière, la plaque de montage est déplacée par le dispositif d'entraînement vers une position de traitement de telle sorte que la plaque de montage se trouve dans la position de traitement, qui est plus proche de l'unité de source de lumière que la position d'attente. Lorsque le substrat est sorti de la chambre de traitement, la plaque de montage est déplacée par le dispositif d'entraînement vers la position d'attente de sorte que la plaque de montage se trouve dans la position d'attente à l'intérieur de la chambre de traitement.
