In a wafer treatment apparatus, a hydrofluoric acid gas supply pipe and an evacuation pipe are connected to a chamber storing a wafer for performing prescribed treatment. A control part is provided for controlling supply of hydrofluoric acid gas. The control part sets a time for supplying the hydrofluoric acid gas into the chamber to be longer than a time up to starting of etching of a reaction product and shorter than a time up to starting of etching of a gate insulator film. Thus, only the reaction product can be substantially etched without etching the gate insulator film.

A plasma is supplied from a plasma source to a space between an upper electrode plate and a lower electrode plate disposed opposite to and in parallel with the upper electrode plate when producing a plasma in the space between the electrode plates for plasma processing by applying radio-frequency power to the electrode plates. The plasma source produce a plasma by inductively coupled discharge, radio-frequency discharge or microwave discharge. A plasma processing apparatus is obtained which is capable of producing a parallel-plate plasma by discharge in a space of a relatively low pressure and is capable of processing a large diameter workpiece uniformly at a high processing rate.

A plasma processing apparatus has a plurality of annular permanent magnets arranged concentrically of a polarity identical in the circumferential direction at the atmosphere side of a second electrode arranged opposite to a stage on which an object to be processed is placed. Arrangement is provided so that the polarity of magnets located adjacent radially is opposite. An insulation substrate is provided between a partition panel and a processing chamber to electrically insulate a plasma generation chamber. Direct current voltage is applied in a pulsive manner to the plasma generation chamber. Thus, a plasma processing apparatus can be provided that allows formation of plasma uniformly over a large area, and processing of a specimen of a large diameter uniformly.

A high-frequency current detector of a plasma processing apparatus detects a high-frequency current produced when high-frequency power in the range that does not cause generation of plasma in a chamber is supplied from a high-frequency power supply source to the chamber. The high-frequency current detector outputs the detected high-frequency current to a computer. The computer compares the high-frequency current received from the high-frequency current detector with a reference high-frequency current. When the received high-frequency current matches the reference high-frequency current, the computer determines that the process performance is normal. Otherwise, the computer determines that the process performance is abnormal. In this way, high-frequency characteristics specific to the apparatus are detected and the process performance are evaluated based on the detected high-frequency characteristics.

There is provided a cable for data transmission which can be wired and constructed without damaging a surface of a wall, ceiling, floor or the like, without using any clamps and which does not degrade appearance of a wired space, and further, allows the wiring construction of the cable provided with a plurality of core wires in a state of less crosstalk. A cable (1) for data transmission includes a core wire (2) having a medium that transmits data and a coating member (4) having adhesiveness and coating at least part of the core wire (2). In this way, because of the adhesiveness of the coating member (4), it is easy to stick the cable onto a wall (6) or the like. Moreover, since a wiring construction of the cable on a surface of the wall (6) or the like without using a clamp, screw or nail is made possible, only the cable is exposed on the surface of the wall (6) or the like and the appearance thereof is improved.

A device for measuring focusing characteristics of an optical pickup and/or an optical disc capable of measuring characteristics of focusing states with high accuracy by a simplified circuit. An arithmetic-logic unit 12d controls an offset supplying circuit 23 for applying an offset voltage to a focusing servo control signal. This arithmetic-logic unit 12d detects an error rate of the playback data in such a state in which the focusing position of the laser light is deviated by a pre-set offset amount. The arithmetic-logic unit 12d sequentially varies the offset voltage to repeat the above processing for detecting the error rate. The arithmetic-logic unit 12d approximates the relationship of the error rate to the offset amount by a quadratic curve based on detected data. The offset amount which minimizes the error rate is found from this equation of approximation.
