Abstract

To suppress the variation in the film thickness measurement result of a substrate.SOLUTION: A substrate processing device for processing a substrate to be measured by a film thickness measuring device includes a heating processing unit that heats the substrate coated with a coating film, and a fluid supply unit that suppresses variation in film thickness of the substrate during or after being processed by the heat processing unit due to a difference in a measurement time until the film thickness is measured by the film thickness measuring device.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9
