Patent attributes
Inclination identifying information for identifying inclination of a substrate with respect to a reference plane is detected. Based on the detected inclination identifying information and a first angle, a holding position of the substrate held by a rotation holder is corrected in a direction that is in parallel to the reference plane such that a distance between a portion of the substrate that is to be processed by a peripheral region processor and the center of the substrate is maintained constant. In this state, processing having directivity of inclination with respect to the reference plane by the first angle is performed on a peripheral region of the substrate by the peripheral region processor while the substrate is rotated by the rotation holder.
