A substrate processing method uses a substrate processing apparatus including a chamber for accommodating a substrate, a lower electrode to mount the substrate, a first RF power applying unit for applying an RF power for plasma generation into the chamber, and a second RF power applying unit for applying an RF power for bias to the lower electrode. The RF power for plasma generation is controlled to be intermittently changed by changing an output of the first RF power applying unit at a predetermined timing. If no plasma state or an afterglow state exists in the chamber by a control of the first RF power applying unit, an output of the second RF power applying unit is controlled to be in an OFF state or decreased below an output of the second RF power applying unit when the output of the first RF power applying unit is a set output.

There are provided a substrate processing apparatus and a substrate processing method realizing an effective reduction of a voltage change of a substrate on an electrode to reduce the variation of incident energy of ions entering the substrate. The substrate processing apparatus includes: a first electrode holding a substrate on a main surface of the first electrode; a second electrode facing the first electrode; a RF power source applying to the first electrode a RF voltage whose frequency is equal to or higher than 40 MHz; and a pulse voltage applying unit applying to the first electrode a pulse voltage decreasing in accordance with a lapse of time, by superimposing the pulse voltage on the RF voltage.

A medium transport device includes a sensor unit, a timing data collection unit, and a sampling resolution changing unit. The sensor unit is provided in a transport path of a print recording medium to detect a transport timing of the print recording medium. A timing data collection unit receives an output from the sensor unit and samples the output at a sampling interval as timing data. A sampling resolution changing unit changes the sampling interval.

A main etching step is effected in a state shown in FIG. 1A under a first pressure using a gas containing at least HBr, e.g., a mixture gas of HBr and Cl2 as an etching gas. The main etching is ended before a silicon oxide film 102, as shown in FIG. 1B, is exposed. An over-etching process is effected under a second pressure higher than the first pressure using a gas containing at least HBr, e.g., an HBr single gas so as to completely expose the silicon oxide film 102 as shown in FIG. 1C. In such a way, the selectivity of a silicon-containing conductive layer with respect to the silicon oxide film is improved compared to conventional methods. Without etching the silicon oxide film layer, which is an underlying layer, and without marring the shape of the silicon-containing conductive film layer formed by etching, only the desired silicon-containing conductive film layer is removed by etching reliably.

A trouble sensing device has a first unit and a second unit. The first unit determines a total sum of driving current of two or more of a plurality of driving mechanisms that are turned on. The second unit judges whether trouble has arisen based on the total sum of the driving current.
