ABSTRACT:
A substrate processing system (100) includes a main transfer line (20) configured to transfer wafers (W) over the entire system, and an auxiliary transfer line (30) configured to transfer wafers (W) inside a photolithography process section (1a). The photolithography process section (1a) is arranged such that a resist coating process apparatus (2) and a developing process apparatus (5) are disposed separately from each other, a first light exposure process apparatus (3a) and a first PEB process apparatus (4a) are disposed adjacent to each other, and a second light exposure process apparatus (3b) and a second PEB process apparatus (4b) are disposed adjacent to each other.
