<p>A heat treatment apparatus includes a treatment container having a reaction chamber, and a gas chamber a mount table provided in the treatment container for mounting thereon a wafer such that an upper surface of the wafer is exposed to the reaction chamber, and an annular clamp member provided in the reaction chamber, movable between a clamp position in which it contacts the peripheral edge of the wafer in circular line contact and a waiting position in which it is separated from the wafer. The line contact prevents leakage of the process gas from the reaction chamber through a clearance between the clamp member and the wafer.</p> |
