When carrying out etching and processing to above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W, under the state making semiconductor wafer W rotary actuation together with rotary table 2 by above-mentioned first rotary driving source 13, by above-mentioned first rotary driving source 13 wobble drive first arm 21, and above-mentioned first open and close valve 39 is opened, from the first jet body 25 set by the leading section of above-mentioned first arm 21, supply etching solution E is sprayed to the upper surface of above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W.Thus, above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W is etched.
By being arranged on the leading section of the 3rd arm 23 and the thickness detecting sensor 29 be positioned above above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W, detect the state of progress of the etching of above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W.The varied in thickness of the above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W detected by thickness detecting sensor 29 be expression set in comparing section 34 and above-mentioned storage part 33 specify etching time time and varied in thickness between the figure P of relation compare, this comparative result is that judging part 35 compared judgement by such as every several seconds per stipulated time.
The upper surface being supplied to etching solution E of above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W is formed organic film or in front operation, this upper surface is processed to minute surface m as shown in figure 6 a, as described above, there is the situation making slow progress based on the etching of etching solution E or be not in progress compared with above-mentioned figure P of the upper surface of above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W.This is because, the surface that etching solution E does not rest on semiconductor wafer W is discharged at once, thus is in the state that the etch processes based on etching solution E is not in progress.
In this case, the comparative result of above-mentioned judging part 35 be judged as the thickness of semiconductor wafer W relative to above-mentioned figure P Yan Genghou.And, when above-mentioned figure P is more than ormal weight with the side-play amount of the thickness of the semiconductor wafer W measured, this situation is outputted to efferent 36.
Thus, when being judged as that the thickness of semiconductor wafer W does not change, above-mentioned efferent 36 closes the supply of the first open and close valve 39 and the liquid E that stops etching, temporarily stop etching process, open the second open and close valve 42 afterwards and spray supply cleaning fluid L from second nozzle body 26 to semiconductor wafer W, thus in cleaning removing semiconductor wafer W the etching solution E that remains.
If the cleaning fluid L spraying the stipulated time from above-mentioned second nozzle body 26 has cleaned the upper surface of above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W, after then supplying the grinding agent such as slurry or grounds travel by feed mechanism 30 to the upper surface of above-mentioned semiconductor wafer W, by the second rotary driving source 14 wobble drive second arm 22.
Meanwhile, drive by being opened by the 3rd open and close valve 44 set on above-mentioned air supply pipe 43 from the signal of above-mentioned efferent 36 cylinder 28 arranged at the leading section of above-mentioned second arm 22.Abrasive body 27 is made to be held in rotary table 2 and to carry out pushing processing with the stipulated time to this upper surface while the upper surface of the semiconductor wafer W be driven in rotation swings by this cylinder 28.
