There is disclosed a plasma processing apparatus for making a gas including hydrocarbon plasma and forming a film including carbons on an object to be coated with a film. The apparatus includes a first reaction chamber for performing a first plasma process on the object to be deposited, a second reaction chamber for performing a second plasma process on an exhaust gas after the first plasma process is performed, and an exhaust pump for exhausting a gas to the outside after the second plasma process is performed. The first reaction chamber is connected to the exhaust pump via the second reaction chamber.
