To further elaborate, it is a technology for supplying a treatment liquid. [Prior art] In the manufacturing steps of the substrate, such as a coating device or a developing device, a substrate processing device that performs chemical liquid processing on the substrate is used. For example, the “coating device” is to spray the anti-button liquid from the liquid supply mechanism such as a liquid tank to the substrate from the nozzle, and apply the anti-button liquid to the coating device. In the processing, the anti-liquid adheres to the nozzle, and the subsequent substrate processing becomes the cause of the particles. In addition, there are many problems in standby, such as the deterioration of anti-surname fluid in S. Therefore, there are proper cleaning nozzles or -e inside. For example, in Patent Document 丨, a coating device having washing power is disclosed. Wind, in Patent Document 1, it is disclosed that there is a technology that further advances a mechanism for supplying a cleaning liquid (ceramics, alkaline water, etc.) to a liquid supply structure installed in a coating device, and sends the cleaning liquid from a nozzle through a specific pipe. Spit it out. That is, a technique is disclosed in which the cleaning liquid is removed from the nozzle 2 while the substrate is not being processed by the coating device, and the inside of the nozzle or the pipe is cleaned. Alas, when the substrate is treated in the same manner as the conventional substrate processing, the cleaning liquid flow path, and the anti-aqueous solution is supplied to the nozzle without supplying the cleaning liquid to the nozzle. In addition, the hand that closes the liquid flow path & generally uses an opening and closing mechanism such as an on-off valve or a check valve. 0 [Patent Document 1] 93017.doc 200428510 The opening and closing mechanism described in JP 200 (M 5 03 45) It is a mechanism that closes the liquid flow path by privately moving the partition member between the open position and the closed position. For the purpose of closing the flow path ^ I 生 介 * partition member, there are two types of liquid (below Weighing: ",", "wet liquid state L"). In such a wet state, depending on the degree of the sealing effect of the partition member (the effect of the function of shutting off the liquid), it must be mixed with the liquid supplied to the puppet. Problem. Especially, when the effect of the barrier member is degraded due to long-term changes, etc., or the viscosity of the liquid that must be partitioned is relatively high, and the capillary phenomenon is prone to occur, the mixing phenomenon is more significant. Take the case of substrate development processing as an example to check the disadvantages of the mixing phenomenon. ° In the imaging device, the imaging liquid is ejected from the nozzle at a flow rate of several L / min. This day, Ge!! ^ Right 1 CC / mi11 When the degree of cleaning solution (pure water) is mixed into the wet state, spit The change in the concentration of the -image solution of 屮 / 月, +, and 变成 is changed to 0.1 · 0 / 〇, and the cause of poor imaging is fully developed. The purpose of this research is to solve the above problems and the developer, whose purpose is to The processing accuracy of the substrate is prevented from being lowered due to the mixing of two or more liquids.

[Embodiments] Hereinafter, suitable embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. < 1. First Embodiment > Fig. 1 is a schematic view of a substrate processing apparatus 1 according to the present invention. In addition, in FIG. 1, for the convenience of illustration and explanation, the Z-axis direction represents the vertical direction and the XY plane represents the horizontal plane. However, these are defined for the sake of grasping the positional relationship and are not limited to the following descriptions. Direction. The same applies to the following diagrams. The substrate processing apparatus 1 includes guides 10 and 11 for carrying in and out of the substrate 90 of the substrate processing apparatus 丨, a transport mechanism 20 for transporting the substrate 90, a liquid supply apparatus 30, and a control apparatus 40. The substrate processing device 丨 is a step in which a square glass substrate used for manufacturing a daytime panel of a liquid crystal display device is regarded as a substrate 90 to be processed, and an electrode layer formed on the surface of the substrate 90 is selectively etched to expose the substrate. The processed substrate 90 is configured as a developing device. Therefore, in this embodiment, the slit nozzle 31 ejects the developing liquid as the processing liquid. Then, the substrate processing apparatus 1 can be used not only as a glass substrate for a liquid crystal display device, but also as a device for performing development processing by ejecting a developing solution onto various substrates. In addition, the liquid to be used for the chemical solution treatment of the substrate 90 is not limited to a developer solution. For example, as with the developer solution, a resist solution or the like that requires high accuracy in the concentration management of the chemical solution may be used. In this case, the substrate 93017.doc 200428510 treatment set 1 functions as a coating device for coating the substrate 90 with an anti-residue solution. The V-guide 10 receives the substrate% from a transport mechanism outside the device (not shown), and after holding it at a specific position for a specific time, the substrate 90 is transferred to the transport mechanism 20. In addition, the guide 11 is a substrate 90 delivered from the conveyance mechanism 20 to a conveyance mechanism outside the apparatus (not shown). In addition, the guides 10 and u may be provided with a loading table for a FOUP cassette or the like, or a transport robot that transfers the substrate 90 to and from the transport mechanism 20. The transport mechanism 20 has a function of transporting the substrate 90 from the guide 10 toward the guide u while holding the substrate 90 at a specific position. The details will be described later, but in the substrate processing apparatus, the substrate 90 is held in the transport mechanism 20 to perform various processes on the substrate 90. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the structure of the liquid supply device 30 in the first embodiment. The liquid supply device 30 includes a slit nozzle 3 丨, a nozzle pipe 32, a one-way valve 3 3, a chemical liquid supply section 3 4, a chemical liquid pipe 3 5, a cleaning liquid supply section 36, a washing > Yin liquid pipe 37 and The liquid discharging mechanism 38 supplies the developing liquid to the substrate 90 held in the transporting mechanism 20 by ejecting the developing liquid supplied from the chemical liquid supply unit 34 from the slit nozzle 3 丨. The details will be described later, but by this means, the substrate processing apparatus 1 functions as a device for performing development processing on the substrate 90. The slit nozzle 31 is formed by a linear member extending mainly in the γ-axis direction. A slit (not shown) for ejecting liquid is installed at a position corresponding to the substrate 90 held by the transport mechanism 20. A nozzle pipe 32 is attached to the narrow nozzle 3 丨. The slit nozzle 31 discharges the developing liquid supplied from the chemical liquid supply unit 34 from the slit to the substrate 90. In addition, the slit nozzle 31 can discharge the cleaning liquid supplied from the cleaning liquid supply unit 36. 93017.doc -10- 200428510 As shown in FIG. 2, in the present embodiment, the “slit nozzle” is connected to the nozzle pipe 32 in three places along the γ-axis direction. As a result, the nozzle 3 ”Liquids such as developing liquid are supplied from 3 places, so the discharge accuracy in the Y-axis direction is equalized. The number of liquid supply places of the fine slit nozzle 31 is not limited to 3 places. The on-off valve 33 is provided in the nozzle piping. The function of 32 connecting the chemical liquid pipe "and the cleaning liquid pipe 37. That is, the three-way valve 33 mainly corresponds to the connecting hand & in the present invention. Furthermore, the nozzle pipe 32 includes a chemical liquid pipe M and a cleaning solution. Any one of the liquid pipes 37 is selectively connected, and the function of the other is equivalent to the opening and closing means in the present invention. Moreover, the three-way valve 33 is connected to the control device 40, corresponding to the slave control device 4. 〇 The control signal transmitted determines the opening and closing operation (flow path selection operation). For example, when the developing device is selected as the liquid to be supplied to the slit nozzle 3 by the control device 40, the chemical liquid pipe 35 is connected to the nozzle pipe 32. With this, the cleaning liquid piping 3 7 is closed. The liquid medicine tank 340, the liquid delivery pump 341, and the on-off valve 3 42 are provided. The liquid medicine tank 340 has the function of a storage tank for storing imaging liquid, and the liquid delivery pump 341 and the on-off valve 342 are connected to the liquid medicine pipeline. 35. The medicinal solution supply unit 34 sends the developing solution stored in the medicinal solution tank 34 to the three-way valve 33 by turning the on-off valve 342 into an open state and driving the liquid feeding pump 341. At this time, if The three-way valve 33 is in a state where the nozzle pipe 32 and the chemical liquid pipe 35 are communicated with each other. Then, the developing liquid is supplied to the fine slit nozzle 31. That is, the chemical liquid supply unit 34 has a function of supplying the developing liquid to the fine slit nozzle 31. The cleaning liquid supply unit 36 opens and closes the on-off valve 360, and forces the material liquid from the cleaning liquid tank outside the device (not shown) toward the tee 33 by a specific thickness 93017.doc -11-200428510. At this time, if the three-way valve 33 communicates with the nozzle pipe 32 and the washing liquid pipe 37, the washing liquid is supplied to the slit nozzle 31. That is, the washing liquid supply unit 36 includes a washing liquid The function of supplying to the slit nozzle 3 丨 In addition, since the substrate processing apparatus 1 in this embodiment uses pure water As the cleaning liquid, a structure for supplying the cleaning liquid from a cleaning liquid tank outside the device is adopted, but the mechanism for supplying the cleaning liquid is not limited to this. For example, a liquid feeding pump is installed in the cleaning liquid supply section 36 Or, the cleaning liquid tank may be constituted such that the cleaning liquid is supplied to the fine slit nozzle 31 by the driving force of the liquid sending pump. The cleaning liquid is not limited to pure water. It is also possible to have a liquid with further detergency. The substrate processing apparatus in this embodiment is provided with a chemical liquid supply section 34 and a cleaning liquid supply section 36, and can be used for a large number of liquids (in this embodiment: The developing liquid and the cleaning liquid) are supplied to the slit nozzle 31. That is, the chemical liquid supply section 34 and the cleaning liquid supply section 36 mainly correspond to the supply means in the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the liquid discharge mechanism 38 is provided with an on-off valve 38 °, which is disposed at a position lower than the position of the narrow nozzle 31, and responds to a control signal transmitted from the control device by opening and closing. The valve 38o drains the liquid (mainly the washing liquid) in the washing liquid pipe 37. In the substrate processing apparatus 1, the nozzle piping 32, the chemical liquid piping 35, and the cleaning liquid piping 37 form a flow path for guiding the liquid to the slit nozzle 3 丨. The nozzle piping has a function of guiding the liquid supplied to the slit nozzle 3, and corresponds to the supply flow path of this & Ming. The chemical solution piping 35 and the cleaning solution piping 37 are equivalent to most flow paths in the present invention. In addition, in these flow paths, 93017.doc • 12-200428510 can be installed appropriately to adjust the flow rate of the valve, to remove the particles of the device and the hand, etc. The control device 40 is a device with a general computer function, and mainly includes a CPU for performing calculation processing and a memory section for storing data (any item is not shown in the figure). The two components of the control device 40 and the substrate processing device are signaled. "Received". It is connected in a possible state 'according to the control signal generated by the aforementioned cpu, and has the function of controlling each component. In particular, the control device is a liquid control device. The liquid (development liquid or imaging liquid) supplied to the slit nozzle 31 is selected. Cleaning liquid) and closed the flow path other than the selected liquid by controlling the three-way valve 33. By 3 = this control, the substrate processing device L can spit out the corresponding processed liquid from the fine slit (already The selected liquid). This is a description of the structure of the substrate processing apparatus i in this embodiment. Then, the operation of the substrate processing apparatus 1 will be described. The processing in the substrate processing apparatus D is roughly divided into development processing and cleaning. In addition, the following operation of the plate processing device 1 is not limited to the specific J, and it is realized by controlling the respective structures in response to the control signals exclusively from the control device 40. The cleaning processing will be explained. In the substrate processing device !, such as: 4 because of the development process, the imaging liquid remains in the slit nozzle and the nozzle pipe ^. This residual strength is strong, and the imaging liquid is deteriorated due to long-term changes, so Caused by pollutants and becoming fine particles ^ ^ 卞, or subsequent processing becomes the source of the image caused by the wave length of the imaging liquid? U Therefore, the substrate processing device 1 is implemented before the actual development processing. " Go to the main edge and clean the developing solution in the fine-slit nozzle 31 and the nozzle surface piping 32. First, before the substrate processing installation, first, 34 ^ 〇 /-^-▲ 碣 σ 冼 before the clean processing, The chemical liquid supply unit and H '341 are put into a stopped state, and the on-off valve ⑷ is closed 93017.doc -13 · 200428510. This stops the supply of the developing liquid to the slit nozzle 3 丨. In addition, the developing liquid The process of stopping the supply of the image liquid is actually the same as that of the end of the development process described later. The liquid discharge mechanism 38 turns the on-off valve 38 ° to the closed state. Next, the control device 40 is required for the cleaning process. The liquid supplied to the slit nozzle 31 is a cleaning liquid, so The three-way valve 33 is controlled as if the nozzle pipe 32 and the washing liquid pipe 37 are connected. In response to the control, the three-way valve ^ selectively connects the nozzle pipe 32 and the washing liquid pipe 37 and closes the liquid medicine pipe 35. Next, the cleaning liquid supply unit 36 supplies the cleaning liquid to the slit nozzle 3 by changing the on-off valve 360 to an open state. The cleaning liquid supply portion 36 supplies the cleaning liquid to the slit nozzle 31, and The narrow nozzle 3 丨 discharges the cleaning liquid. At this time, the cleaning liquid passes through the narrow nozzle 31 and the nozzle pipe 32, so the developing liquid and the like remaining in these are flushed out, and the narrow nozzle 3 is cleaned. And the nozzle piping 32. When the cleaning and control device 40 of the fine-slit nozzle 31 and the nozzle piping 32 are sufficiently judged after a special time, the control device 40 closes the on-off valve 360 of the cleaning liquid supply unit 36 In general, a control signal is output to the cleaning liquid supply unit 36. In response to the control signal, the cleaning liquid supply unit 36 stops the supply of the cleaning liquid to the slit nozzle 31 and stops the discharge of the cleaning liquid from the slit nozzle 31 by turning the on-off valve 36 ° to the closed state. . Next, the liquid discharge mechanism 38 changes the on-off valve 380 to the open state in response to a control signal transmitted from the control device 40. The on-off valve 38 ° is installed at a position lower than that of the sparge 31. Therefore, when the on-off valve 3 80 is opened, the fine slit f 嚿 3 1, the nozzle pipe 3 2, the three-way valve 3 3, and the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 are mainly directed by the action of gravity. Figure 2 flows in the direction indicated by the arrow 93017.doc -14- 200428510. No additional suction mechanism is required at the time of exit. The cleaning liquid is discharged to the outside by the drainage mechanism 38. Thereby, the washing liquid is prevented from remaining in the washing liquid pipe P, and the washing liquid pipe 37 becomes substantially empty. For example, in the substrate processing apparatus of this embodiment mode, when pure water is used as a cleaning liquid, when the pure water stays for a long time, bacteria are generated in the pure water, and there are problems that they become particles. However, in the substrate processing apparatus 1, even if it is left for a long period of time, the retention of pure water is prevented by the liquid discharge mechanism 38, so the generation of bacteria can be prevented. When the liquid discharge from the liquid discharge mechanism 38 is completed, the cleaning process in the substrate processing apparatus 1 is completed, and the substrate processing apparatus 丨 becomes a standby state. Next, the operation of the development processing in the substrate processing apparatus will be described. The development processing is a step of manufacturing the substrate 90, and is a step of liquid processing performed on the substrate 90. Specifically, it is a process for developing a photosensitive material (resist) which has been exposed on the substrate 90. The development processing is performed on the substrate processing apparatus 1 in a standby state, and is started by carrying in the exposed processing substrate 90 by the transport 1 outside the apparatus. The transport device outside the device carries the substrate 90 into the guide 10. The guide 10 keeps the carried substrate 90 at a specific position, and then transfers it to the transport mechanism 20 after carrying out maintenance. At this time, the guide J 0 may also be used to adjust the direction of the substrate 90 by rotating the substrate 90. The transport mechanism 20 keeps the received substrate 90 in a substantially horizontal direction, and in a direction of 'J (X). The sensor (not shown) detects that the substrate 90 is transported to a specific position. Since the liquid that must be supplied to the slit nozzle 31 during the development process is the development liquid, the control device 40 is the third control unit. The valve 33 connects 93017.doc -15- 200428510 nozzle pipe 32 and liquid pipe 35 to the material. With this, the three-way system connects the nozzle pipe 32 and the chemical liquid pipe 35 to each other, and closes the cleaning liquid pipe 37. * Next, the chemical liquid supply unit 34 supplies the developing liquid to the fine slit nozzle 31 by opening the on-off valve 342 and drives the liquid feeding pump 34, and starts the developing liquid from the fine slit nozzle 31 on the substrate 90. Spit it out. On this day, the liquid discharge mechanism 38 keeps the inside of the cleaning liquid pipe 37 in a liquid state (empty state). Therefore, in this embodiment mode, the three-way valve 33 is used in the development process of the physical device and the developing solution, and there is no case where the developing solution and the cleaning solution are changed into a wet state. Therefore, the developing solution discharged from the substrate 90 prevents the cleaning solution from being mixed. This prevents the development solution from being diluted, etc., thereby improving the accuracy of the concentration management of the development solution and preventing the development failure. The substrate 90 is transported in the (+ χ) direction by the transport mechanism 2G, and receives the ejection of the developing solution from the slit ㈣31. That is, the substrate 90 is scanned by the slit nozzle 31 in the X-axis direction to perform the development processing of the exposed photosensitive material on the substrate 90. When the scanning of the substrate 90 of the slit nozzle 31 is completed, the chemical liquid supply section% turns the on-off valve 342 to a closed state and stops the liquid feeding pump 34m. Thereby, the supply of the developing solution from the chemical solution supply unit 34 is stopped, and the discharge of the developing solution from the slit nozzle 31 is stopped. Next, the control device 4G controls the three-way valve 33 to connect the nozzle pipe 32 and the washing liquid pipe 37 in communication. With this, the three-way system is connected to the nozzle pipe M and the washing material, and the Gu liquid "35 becomes closed. Furthermore, the liquid discharge mechanism 38 turns the on-off valve 380 to the open state, via 93017. doc -16- 200428510 First / liquid-dispensing officer 37 drains the developing solution in the fine slit nozzle 31 and the nozzle pipe 32. This' ends the developing process. Then, the aforementioned washing process is performed again, and the order is made. Washing in the narrow slit nozzle 31 and the nozzle pipe 32. In addition, the washing process is not necessary to be carried out each time the developing process is performed, for example, after repeating the developing process of a specific number of persons, the washing process may be performed. Above the prostitute, the substrate processing device 1 in the conventional application type is for processing substrates 90 ,, and $, and the liquid discharge mechanism 38. The flow path of the processing liquid will be changed to the wetted flow path. The liquid in (cleaning liquid pipe 37) is drained in advance to prevent the liquid from getting wet with the processing liquid. Because of this, even if the three-way valve% changes for a long time, etc .: When the blocking function is reduced, or as a cleaning liquid The viscosity of the liquid ^ can still be the same as that of other devices, preventing the supply to the slit nozzle 3 1 The treatment liquid is mixed with other liquids. The "draining of the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid piping 37" can prevent the retention of the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid piping 37. Therefore, even if the lye is used as cleaning, It is still possible to prevent the generation of microbes as a cause of microparticles when the liquid crystal and base device is longer. This can also be used; the processing accuracy of the south substrate processing device 1 is also used. In addition, 'in order to prevent the developing solution and cleaning The liquid becomes in a liquid-contact state, and the developing liquid is supplied to the sewing nozzle 31, and the liquid surface of the cleaning> night does not contact the ㈣33. Therefore, the liquid discharge mechanism does not need to place the cleaning liquid in the pipe π. The washing, washing, and washing liquids are all drained. However, when the washing liquid is pure water, etc., in order to prevent the retention of coffee, as in the substrate processing apparatus i in this embodiment, the washing liquid is distributed with the washing liquid in 37 It is better to make a complete drainage. 93017.doc -17- 200428510 < 2. Second embodiment > In the first embodiment, the three-way valve 33 is used to connect the nozzle pipe 32, the chemical liquid pipe M, and the cleaning liquid f 3 7 to each other, but these pipes are connected and connected. The structure is not limited to the three-way valve 33. That is, a member having a function of opening and closing a flow path may be used. Fig. 3 is a schematic view showing the liquid supply device 30a of the substrate processing apparatus 1 in the second embodiment constructed based on such a principle. The liquid supply device 3 has a structure in which the three-way valve 33 of the liquid supply device 30 in the first embodiment is replaced with a joint portion 33a. In addition, the liquid supply device 30a is a structure other than the joint portion 33a and a liquid Since the supply device 30 is the same, illustration and description are appropriately omitted. The operation of cleaning processing and developing processing of the substrate processing apparatus 1 in the second embodiment having the above configuration will be described. First, the cleaning processing will be described. In the present embodiment, the substrate processing split 1 ′ before the cleaning process is started, the chemical liquid supply unit 34 stops the driving of the liquid feeding pump 341, and the on-off valve 342 is closed. Furthermore, the liquid is discharged. The mechanism 38 turns the on-off valve 380 into a closed state. Then, in response to a control signal transmitted from the control device 40, the cleaning liquid supply section 36 turns the on-off valve 3 60 into an open state. Thus, washing from outside the device is performed. The cleaning tank supplies the cleaning liquid to the cleaning liquid pipe 37, and supplies the cleaning liquid to the slit nozzle 31 through the joint portion 33a and the nozzle pipe 32. As a result, the cleaning liquid is discharged from the slit nozzle 31. A specific time elapses , Fine slit nozzle 3 1 and When the cleaning of the nozzle pipe 32 is completed, the cleaning liquid supply part 36 turns the on-off valve 360 into a closed state. Moreover, the liquid mechanism 38 discharges the opening-closing valve so that it remains in the slit Drain the cleaning liquid from the nozzle _, nozzle piping 32, joint 33a, and cleaning liquid piping _. At this time, 'the internal structure of the 3 domain of the joint is simpler than that of the tee, so the liquid is drained well, which effectively prevents development. Residue of liquid. _When the discharge of the cleaning liquid of the night stack structure 3 8 is completed, the liquid discharging mechanism μ turns the on-off valve _ to a closed state. With this, the end of the cleaning processing of the substrate processing apparatus in this embodiment is known. The substrate processing apparatus j is in a standby state. That is, the substrate processing apparatus in this embodiment also prevents the generation of pure water in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 during standby. Next, the description is directed to the development process. When the shoulder substrate 90 is transported to a specific position by the transport mechanism, the control device 4G selects a developing liquid as the liquid to be used, and inputs the control signal to the medicinal liquid supply unit corresponding to the control signal. The medicinal liquid supply unit 3, The drive of the liquid pump 341 will start The booth 342 is opened. As a result, the developing solution is supplied to the chemical solution pipe 35, and the developing solution supplied from the chemical solution pipe to the coupling portion 33a also flows into the cleaning solution pipe 37. However, the cleaning solution supply section The on-off valve 360 of 36 and the on-off valve 38 of the liquid discharging mechanism 38 are in a closed state. Therefore, the inflow of the developing liquid toward the cleaning liquid pipe 37 is stopped at a moment, and the imaging supplied from the chemical liquid pipe 35 afterwards The liquid system is supplied to the slit nozzle 3 through the joint portion 33a and the nozzle dispensing unit 32. As a result, the development liquid is started to be discharged from the slit nozzle 31. Therefore, the development liquid system in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 is used. Since the on-off valve 36o is in a liquid state with the cleaning solution, the cleaning solution is mixed in the cleaning solution pipe 37. However, since the flow path of the cleaning liquid pipe 37 and the developing liquid is connected to the space 93017.doc -19- 200428510, it does not directly become the flow path of the developing liquid, so the liquid in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 Roughly does not flow. Therefore, at the opening / closing valve 36 located at a position relatively deviated from the joint portion (the mass flow path of the developing solution), the developing solution and the cleaning solution are in a liquid-contact state, even if a part of the developing solution in the cleaning solution pipe 37 is diluted. The image liquid has almost no effect on the development processing. When the scanning of the substrate 90 of the fine slit nozzle 31 is completed, the chemical liquid supply unit 34 turns the on-off valve 3 42 to a closed state and stops the liquid feeding pump 3}. Thereby, the supply of the developing solution from the chemical solution supply section 34 is stopped, and the discharge of the developing solution from the slit nozzle = is stopped. Next, the liquid discharge mechanism 38 opens the on-off valve 380, discharges the developing liquid in the slit nozzle 31, the nozzle pipe 32, the joint portion 33a, and the washing liquid pipe 37, and ends the developing process. As described above, the substrate processing apparatus in the second embodiment mode is based on the position in which the processing liquid and other liquids in the liquid state used for processing the chemical liquid for the substrate 90 are generated, such as being located from the flow of the processing liquid. The path is configured as a fully deviated position, and a liquid discharge mechanism 38 is provided to properly drain the diluted processing liquid in a liquid-receiving state, and the processing liquid discharged from the slit nozzle 3 can be controlled to mix with other liquids. Therefore, the substrate processing apparatus 1 in this embodiment can improve the accuracy of the concentration management of the processing liquid supplied to the substrate 90, and therefore can improve the processing accuracy of the chemical liquid processing of the substrate 90. < 3β Third Embodiment > It is also possible to use a general check valve that passes the liquid only in one direction to realize the configuration as a means for opening and closing the liquid flow path. FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram showing a base 93017.doc -20-200428510 of the third embodiment constructed based on such a principle, and a liquid supply device 30b of the plate processing device 1 is shown. The liquid supply device 30b serves as a mechanism for opening and closing the chemical liquid piping 35 and the cleaning liquid piping 37, and is different from the above-mentioned embodiment in that it includes check valves 39a and 39b. The check valve 39a is used to drive the liquid supply pump 34 of the chemical liquid supply unit 34 to pass the developing liquid from the chemical liquid pipe 35 toward the nozzle pipe 32. In addition, the check valve)% has a function of preventing liquid (developing liquid and cleaning liquid) from flowing backward from the nozzle pipe 32 to the chemical liquid pipe 35. The check valve 39b is configured to pass the washing liquid from the washing liquid pipe 37 toward the nozzle pipe 32 when the on-off valve 36 of the washing liquid supply unit 36 is opened. The check valve 39b prevents the liquid (developing liquid and washing liquid) from flowing backward from the nozzle pipe 32 to the washing liquid pipe 37. That is, the control device 40 can control the opening and closing of the non-return check 39a and 39b by controlling the increase and decrease of the liquid pressure on the side of the liquid medicine pipe 35 and the washing liquid pipe 37 of the check valves 39a and 39b. The operation of the substrate processing in the third embodiment having such a structure and the cleaning processing and development processing of the watermelon 1 will be described. First, before the cleaning process is started, the medicinal solution supply unit 34 turns the driving of the liquid feeding pump 341 into a stopped state, and turns the on-off valve 342 into a closed state. The 'drainage mechanism 38' turns the on-off valve 380 into a closed state. Next, in response to a control signal transmitted from the control device 40, the cleaning liquid supply unit 36 turns the on-off valve 360 into an open state. Thereby, the washing liquid is supplied from a washing liquid tank outside the apparatus to the washing liquid pipe 37, and the pressure of the washing liquid in the washing liquid pipe 37 rises. Therefore, the check valve 39b is opened, and the cleaning liquid is supplied to the slit nozzle 31 through the check valve 39b and the nozzle pipe 32, and the cleaning liquid is discharged from the slit nozzle 93017.doc -21-200428510. When the cleaning of the fine-slit nozzle 31 and the nozzle pipe 32 is completed in a predetermined time, the cleaning liquid supply unit 36 turns the on-off valve 36o to the closed state. The liquid discharge mechanism 38 discharges the cleaning liquid remaining in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 by opening the on-off valve 38o. In addition, the liquid discharge mechanism 38 discharges the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid pipe 37. Although the pressure in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 is reduced, the liquid in the nozzle dispensing unit 32 is prevented by the check valve 39b. Backflowed into the washing liquid pipe 37. According to the above, the cleaning processing of the substrate processing apparatus 丨 in this embodiment mode is completed 'and the substrate processing apparatus 1 is brought into a standby state. Next, development processing will be described. When the substrate 90 is transported to a specific position by the transport mechanism 20, the developing liquid is selected as the liquid used by the control device, and the control signal is output to the chemical liquid supply unit 34. In response to the control signal, the music liquid supply unit 34 starts driving the liquid supply pump 341, and changes the on-off valve 342 to an open state. After that, the developing solution is supplied to the chemical solution pipe 35, and the pressure of the developing solution in the chemical solution pipe 35 increases, and the check valve 39a is opened. Therefore, the developing liquid is supplied to the slit nozzle 31 through the check valve 39a and the nozzle pipe 32, and the developing liquid is discharged from the slit nozzle 31. At this time, since the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 is drained in advance by the drainage structure%, the developing liquid and the cleaning liquid are not brought into a wet state at the check valve 39b. As described above, in the third embodiment, the substrate processing device i uses the liquid supply device 3 0b using the check valves 3 9 a and 3 9 b as a mechanism for opening and closing the liquid flow path. 93017.doc -22- 200428510 Structure. The same effect as that of the substrate processing apparatus in the embodiment can be obtained. In addition, by using the check valves 39a and 39b, the control device 40 can directly perform the desired operation by controlling only the chemical liquid supply portion 34 and the cleaning liquid supply portion 36 without directly controlling the seal and the like. Therefore, the control of the control device 40 can be simplified. In addition, in order to prevent the development liquid or the cleaning liquid from remaining in the slit pipe 31 and the nozzle pipe 32, the height position of the two-axis direction of the slit nozzle 31 is arranged to be higher than the position of the check valve 39a and 39biZ axis direction. Low is better. < 4. 4th implementation mode >; The second yoke-type liquid supply device 3 in the yoke type is connected to the joint portion 3 3a in a substantially horizontal state in communication. When the nozzle pipe 32 and the chemical liquid pipe 35 are connected in this configuration, even if the liquid is drained by the cymbal mechanism%, the developing liquid in the chemical liquid pipe 35 may remain. For example, the three-way valve 33 in the first bismuth-type evil can close the chemical liquid pipe M during the cleaning process when the flow path connecting mechanism group enters the flow path opening and closing mechanism. Therefore, there is less problem that the developer remains in the chemical solution pipe 35. The cleaning process is not a process for the substrate 90, and does not require high accuracy. In the cleaning process, the cleaning solution from the narrow slit nozzle 3 丨 + ψ center and the cleaning solution is sent to the three-way valve 33 through and The developing solution is mixed with the developing solution in a wet state, but if it is mixed to this extent, the washing power of the Yin solution will not be significantly lost. The joint 33a in the t 疋 ^ 2 shell type is that the medicine solution cannot be closed during the cleaning process & 35. Therefore, when the developing solution remains in the chemical solution piping 35, the substrate processing equipment in the second embodiment: the substrate processing equipment in the second embodiment mode is more mixed than the cleaning solution in the one-stage cleaning processing. Like liquid. That is, when the cleaning effect of the cleaning solution is reduced, it can be as long as possible before starting the cleaning process; 93017.doc -23 · 200428510 It is better to reduce the developing solution remaining in the chemical solution pipe 35. Fig. 5 is a schematic view showing a liquid supply device 30o of a substrate processing apparatus in a fourth embodiment constructed based on such a principle. At the liquid supply position 30c, the medicinal liquid pipe is connected to the joint portion 33a according to the inclination shown in FIG. 5. That is, the medicinal liquid pipe 35 is inclined toward the joint portion 33 and connected downward. When the liquid mechanism 38 opens the on-off valve 380 to discharge the liquid in the cleaning liquid pipe 37, the liquid in the chemical liquid pipe 35 is also smoothly drained, and the amount of liquid remaining in the chemical liquid pipe 35 is reduced. The structure and operation of the liquid supply device 3 0c are the same as those of the liquid supply device 3 0a in the second embodiment, so the description is omitted. As described above, even if the substrate processing device structure in the fourth embodiment is used, it is still possible. The same effect as that of the second embodiment is obtained. In addition, in the liquid supply device 30c, the medicinal solution pipe 35 is inclined downward to the joint portion 33a and connected to the joint portion 33a, thereby improving the medicinal solution dispensing function. 35. Therefore, since the amount of liquid remaining in the medicinal solution pipe 35 is reduced, for example, the amount of the developing solution mixed in the cleaning solution in the cleaning process can be reduced. < 5. 5th embodiment > The case where the substrate processing apparatus 1 in the above embodiment uses one liquid (developing liquid) as the processing liquid for processing the substrate 90 has been described, but the processing liquid It is not limited to one type, and two or more types may be used.

The liquid supply device 30d is provided with three chemical liquid supply sections 93017.doc -24-200428510 34a 34b, 34e 'as shown in FIG. 6, and each is connected to the joint section. Each of the chemical liquid supply sections 34a, b has the same structure as the chemical liquid supply section μ in the above embodiment, and stores different processing liquids in each of the chemical liquid tanks 34o. The coupling portion 33b is a member having the same function and structure as the coupling portion 33a except that it can connect and connect a large number of chemical liquid preparations. In addition, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, each chemical liquid pipe 35 is attached to the company 33b 'along the two-axis direction. For example, it may be installed at a position around the joint portion 33b. . ° Control device 40 is the processing performed by the substrate processing device 1 and selects the processing liquid to be discharged from the slit nozzle 31, and stores the selected processing liquid from the chemical liquid supply unit ^, rectification, and%, and supplies it to the Slit Nozzle 31. In addition, when the used treatment liquid is replaced, the liquid in the slit nozzle 31, the nozzle pipe 32, and the joint portion 33b is discharged by the liquid discharge mechanism 38. In addition, the washing liquid supply unit 36 may supply a washing liquid and perform a washing process. As described above, the substrate processing apparatus i in the fifth embodiment can also obtain the same effect as the above embodiment. In addition, the liquid supply device 30d is provided with a plurality of chemical liquid supplies 34 &, 34b, and 34C, so that the substrate processing device can be diversified. < 6. Modifications > Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to those described above, and various modifications can be made. For example, the substrate processing device 丨 does not need to carry out the development of the substrate 90 frequently, that is, when the substrate processing is placed in the line for multiple exposure steps, etc., in the multiple exposure processing room, the substrate 90 through substrate processing 93017.doc -25-200428510 ^ 1 can also be placed. The substrate processing setup in the above implementation form!

Yes. In the above-mentioned example, the liquid discharge mechanism 38 is not provided with a suction mechanism, but performs liquid discharge '. In addition, a suction mechanism is also provided to suction the liquid in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 and discharge the liquid. The "Phan 1 closed-flow mechanism" or the position where the mechanism is installed is not limited to the above-mentioned Λ target type. For example, the check valves 39a, 39bt of the liquid supply device 30b in the third embodiment may be replaced with an on-off valve, and the on-off valve may be controlled by the control device 40. Moreover, in the liquid supply devices 30a, 30c, and 30d of the second, fourth, and fifth embodiments, the liquid-contacting state of the developing solution and the cleaning solution is not generated close to the developing solution. The position of the flow path is constituted. However, a configuration may be adopted in which an on-off valve is provided on the joint portion 33a (33b) side of the cleaning liquid pipe 37. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of a liquid supply device 30e in a modified example constructed based on such a principle. The liquid supply device 30e is a liquid supply device 30 in the second embodiment, and has a structure in which an on-off valve 33c is added. The liquid discharge mechanism 38 in this modification is a state in which the on-off valve 33c is closed, and the liquid in the cleaning liquid pipe 37 is discharged. With this, even when the connection of the chemical solution ί 3 5 and the cleaning solution piping 37 is made by using the connection portions 33 a and 33 b having a simple structure, the connection of the developing solution and the cleaning solution can be prevented. 93017.doc -26- 200428510 status.
