Abstract

A substrate liquid processing apparatus includes a substrate holding device which holds a substrate in horizontal position and rotate the substrate around vertical axis of the substrate, a liquid discharge device which is positioned underneath central portion of lower surface of the substrate in the horizontal position and discharges processing liquid toward the lower surface of the substrate, and a gas discharge passage structure which has a gas discharge passage formed around the discharge device such that drying gas passes through. The discharge device has a head including a cover which is extending beyond upper end of the passage such that the cover is covering the upper end of the passage, a liquid discharge port which is protruding from the cover toward the substrate in the horizontal position, and a curved portion which is formed between the port and cover such that the curved portion has a surface bending downward.
