A centrifugal force is applied to the substrate 1 by the base 2, and a photosensitive resin is applied to the surface of the substrate 1.

して問題となっている。The above-mentioned conventional device for dropping an appropriate amount of photosensitive resin, etc. is equipped with a baking device that evaporates moisture from the semiconductor substrate before the device, and the semiconductor substrate heated by the baking device is transferred to the coating device. It is difficult to keep the substrate temperature constant at the time of processing, and furthermore, it is impossible to adjust the substrate temperature to P15I below room temperature. For this reason, the film thickness of the photosensitive resin obtained by dropping the photosensitive resin or the like in an appropriate manner and applying centrifugal force by high-speed rotation is not uniform between the semiconductor substrates that are continuously processed, and even within the plane. This has become a problem as a factor causing variations in pattern dimensions of semiconductor devices, which are becoming increasingly finer.

A pump 4 that vacuums the substrate 2 through a shaft 3, a cup that prevents the liquid from scattering around the substrate 2 when spin-coating a photosensitive resin liquid, and a semiconductor substrate inside the cup 5 and outside the substrate 2. 1 and has a cooling gas ejection mechanism that ejects cooling gas. The cooling gas jetting mechanism includes a plate 6 having a cooling gas jetting lower, an adjustment section 8 that cools and adjusts the temperature of the gas sent to the plate 6, and a cooling gas pipe 9.

来と同じ作用を行わせる。In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, before dropping an ia amount of photosensitive resin liquid onto the semiconductor substrate 1, the semiconductor substrate 1 is vacuum-adsorbed on the base 2, and cooling gas is sent to the adjustment section 8 from the piping 9. , then adjust the temperature of the gas and transfer it to plate 6.
The temperature of the semiconductor substrate 1 is adjusted by blowing cooling gas onto the semiconductor substrate 1 from the lower blowout of the plate 6. After that, the same action as before is performed.
尚、実施例では感光性樹脂液塗布工程に適用した場合に
