Substrate-processing apparatus, substrate-processing method, substrate-processing program, and computer-readable recording medium recorded with such program

摘要

A pattern forming system 1 is configured to execute a series of processes, which includes a first heat process for performing a heat process on a substrate W after a resist liquid coating process, a light exposure process for performing light exposure on a resist film in accordance with a predetermined pattern, a second heat process for promoting a chemical reaction in the resist film after the light exposure, a developing process for developing the resist film after the light exposure, and an etching process for etching an oxide film by use of a resist pattern formed by the developing process as a mask. The system includes a checking apparatus 400 configured to measure and check a state of a pattern formed after the etching process, and a control section 500 configured to use a check result to set a condition for the first heat process and/or the second heat process so as to cause the state of the pattern to be uniform on a surface of the substrate W after the etching process.
