Abstract

A substrate processing apparatus includes: a processing chamber that accommodates a substrate; a heating portion that is provided so as to surround a accommodating region of the substrate within the processing chamber; a gas nozzle that is provided inside the heating portion and that supplies a processing gas to the accommodating region of the substrate; and a gas heating mechanism that is provided inside the heating portion and that supplies the processing gas from an upstream side of the gas nozzle into the gas nozzle. A ratio of a flow channel circumferential length to a flow channel cross-sectional area in a gas flow channel of the gas heating mechanism is larger than a ratio of a flow channel circumferential length to a flow channel cross-sectional area in a gas flow channel of the gas nozzle.
