In a capacitively coupled plasma processing apparatus, a susceptor (lower electrode) 16 within a decompression chamber 10 faces an upper electrode 46 serving as a shower head. The susceptor 16 is electrically connected with a first high frequency power supply 36 and a second high frequency power supply 38 via matching devices 40 and 42, respectively. The first high frequency power supply 36 is formed of a linear amplifier type high frequency power supply and outputs a first high frequency power RF1 for plasma generation. The second high frequency power supply 38 is formed of a switching type high frequency power supply and outputs a second high frequency power RF2 for ion attraction. A residual high frequency power removing unit 74 is connected to a high frequency power supply line 45 on a side of the second high frequency power supply 38.
