However, according to the above-mentioned conventional technique, when the size of the substrate is larger than the size of the adsorption surface of the holding plate, the cooling effect of the temperature control medium flowing inside the holding plate is reduced. Since the temperature does not reach the outer peripheral edge of the substrate, a local temperature difference may occur and the substrate may be deformed. Also,
Even when the board is configured to be delivered by the delivery pin protruding from the suction surface of the holding board, the suction surface of the holding board and the contact surface of the board are interrupted due to the hole for retracting the delivery pin, which causes local Temperature difference may occur.
Further, when the ratio of the portion where the substrate does not come into contact with the holding plate is large as described above, it is difficult to firmly support the substrate, and the substrate may be deformed due to lack of local rigidity and transfer misalignment may occur.
