摘要： A temperature control method of a chamber of a plasma processing apparatus includes: (a) providing a substrate in the chamber; (b) measuring a pre-processing temperature of an internal component of the chamber; (c) determining a temperature control condition based on a difference between the pre-processing temperature measured in (b) and a target temperature that has been preset in advance; (d) performing a process including at least one of increasing the temperature of the internal component by a first plasma of a first processing gas and cooling the internal component by purging the chamber with a cooling gas, based on the temperature control condition; and (e) processing the substrate with a second plasma of a second processing gas.

摘要： A temperature changing method includes changing a pressure of a gas supplied from a gas supply to a gap between the substrate and an electrostatic chuck from a first pressure to a second pressure being lower than the first pressure, changing a voltage applied to the electrostatic chuck from a first voltage to a second voltage being lower than the first voltage, changing a temperature of the electrostatic chuck from a first temperature to a second temperature, electrostatically attracting the substrate by the electrostatic chuck for a time in a state where the gas pressure is the second pressure and the voltage is the second voltage, changing the gas pressure from the second pressure to a third pressure being lower than the first pressure and higher than the second pressure, and changing the voltage from the second voltage to a third voltage being higher than the second voltage.

摘要： An etching method includes: (a) providing a substrate having an etching target film and a mask on the etching target film to a substrate support in a plasma processing apparatus including a chamber, the substrate support, a plasma generator supplied with source power, and a bias electrode supplied with bias power; and (b) forming a recess by etching the etching target film. In (b), the source power and the bias power are periodically supplied in a cycle that includes a first period and a second period. In the first period, the etching target film is etched, and in the second period, the second processing gas is adsorbed onto the etching target film.

摘要： In one exemplary embodiment, there is provided an etching method. The method includes (a) preparing a substrate, the substrate comprising a silicon-containing film and a mask, the silicon-containing film including a recess, the mask being provided on the silicon-containing film and including an opening that exposes the recess; (b) forming a carbon-containing film on a side wall of the silicon-containing film, the side wall defining the recess; and (c) by using a plasma generated from a processing gas, forming a protective film containing tungsten on the carbon-containing film and etching the silicon-containing film in the recess, the processing gas including a fluorine-containing gas and a tungsten-containing gas.
