摘要:
An etching chamber 1 incorporates a focus ring 9 so as to surround a semiconductor wafer W provided on a lower electrode 4. The plasma processor is provided with an electric potential control DC power supply 33 to control the electric potential of this focus ring 9, and so constituted that the lower electrode 4 is supplied with a DC voltage of, e.g., −400 to −600 V to control the electric potential of the focus ring 9. This constitution prevents surface arcing from developing along the surface of a substrate to be processed.

摘要:
A plasma processing method in which plasma can be ignited stably with a low radio frequency power and a low gas pressure even after long time operation by applying a DC voltage of −0.5 kV, for example, from a DC power supply (118) to a lower electrode (104) before a radio frequency power is applied from a radio frequency power supply (114) to the lower electrode (104) through a matching unit 112 when the surface of a wafer W mounted on the lower electrode (104) disposed in a processing container (102) is subjected to a specified plasma processing with plasma of a processing gas formed by applying a radio frequency power to the processing gas introduced into the airtight processing container (102).
