Film forming method and film forming apparatus

摘要

A polyimide solution is supplied to a wafer and the wafer is rotated by means of a spin chuck, thereby forming a polyimide film on the wafer. An irradiator for irradiating a laser beam to a peripheral portion of the wafer W is provided. After the polyimide film is formed and side rinse is performed, a laser beam is irradiated to the peripheral portion to solidify the film at the peripheral portion. The solidified polyimide film forms a weir, thus preventing the polyimide solution which has not dried yet from flowing out toward a peripheral edge portion.
