ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a vertical heat treatment boat that has at least four or more support portions per processing target substrate to be supported, the support portions horizontally supporting the processing target substrate, support auxiliary members on which the processing target substrate is mounted being detachably attached to the four or more support portions, respectively, wherein flatness obtained from all surfaces of the respective support auxiliary members on which the processing target substrate is mounted is adjusted by adjusting thicknesses of the support auxiliary members or interposing spacers between the support portions and the support auxiliary members in accordance with respective shapes of the four or more support portions. As a result, it is provided the vertical heat treatment boat and a heat treatment method for a semiconductor wafer that can readily improve flatness in support of the processing target substrate and effectively prevent occurrence of slip dislocation when performing a heat treatment to the processing target substrate such as a semiconductor wafer by using a vertical heat treatment furnace.
