Abstract
A thin-film coating apparatus rotates a member on which a coating solution is dropped to spread the coating solution over the member. The thin-film coating apparatus comprises a spinner for securely supporting the member, a casing firmly attached to the spinner in surrounding relation to the spinner and the member, and a lid for closing an opening in the casing through which the member can be brought into and out of the casing, thereby defining a closed processing chamber in the casing.
