Publisher's Synopsis
A method for treating a substrate, in which a supercritical fluid is supplied into a chamber, in which the substrate is carried, to treat the substrate, the method including a supply step of supplying the supercritical fluid into the chamber until a pressure of the interior of the chamber reaches a preset pressure, and a substrate treating step of performing a supercritical process while repeating supply and exhaust of the supercritical fluid into and out of the interior of the chamber after the supply step, wherein a flow rate of the supercritical fluid supplied into the chamber in the supply step is variable.
