Original Abstract Submitted
A substrate processing apparatus that can radiate light on a composition in an optimum radiation amount based on acquired spectral sensitivity characteristics can be provided. A substrate processing apparatus configured to perform pattern formation processing on a composition on a substrate includes a first radiation unit configured to radiate first light onto the substrate, a dispenser configured to apply the composition to a first position inside the substrate processing apparatus, a template holding unit configured to hold a template to be brought in contact with the composition on the substrate, and a controller configured to control a radiation amount of the first light to be radiated by the first radiation unit based on spectral sensitivity characteristics of the composition that are measured in advance.
