Abstract

An equipment (100; 200) for thermal stabilization process of photoresist pattern on semiconductor wafer comprises an ultraviolet lamp (20) by which a photoresist pattern formed on a semiconductor wafer (W) put in a process chamber (S) under vacuum pressure is irradiated with ultraviolet rays of a predetermined strength, and a heater (10) for heating the wafer to a predetermined temperature.
