Abstract

See full text

An apparatus includes a holding portion for holding a substrate, a nozzle, provided to face the substrate held by the holding portion, for discharging a solution to the substrate, a driver for moving the nozzle along a surface of the substrate relatively with respect to the substrate while the solution is being discharged to the surface of the substrate from the nozzle, a mask unit covering a portion other than a film formation area of the substrate and including a mask member for catching the solution from the nozzle, and a cleaner provided in the mask unit. The coating solution can be supplied to the surface of the substrate in a way similar to a picture drawn with a single stroke of a brush. A cleaning unit for cleaning the mask member does not need to be provided separately, leading to the facilitation of cleaning and a reduction in space.
