description | An apparatus for processing wafer-shaped articles, comprises a process chamber, and a spin chuck positioned inside the process chamber. The spin chuck is configured to hold a wafer-shaped article at a predetermined process position. A plate covers the spin chuck and is affixed to or formed integrally with the spin chuck for rotation therewith, the plate having a central opening. A nozzle assembly extends into the process chamber such that a discharge end of the nozzle assembly passes through the central opening of the plate to define a gap between the plate and the nozzle assembly, the gap extending from an upper inlet end to a lower outlet end. The nozzle assembly comprises at least one side nozzle positioned to direct a gas flow adjacent to the gap and upstream of the lower outlet end, and configured to generate a reduced pressure at a position upstream of the lower outlet end of the gap, thereby to control gas flow through the gap from the upper inlet end toward the lower outlet end. |
