To provide an asher, an ashing method and an impurity doping apparatus group which can detect the interface between a surface hardening layer of a resist and an internal nonhardening layer and the interface between the nonhardening layer and a semiconductor substrate, with a high throughput. The invention provides the asher for plasma ashing the surface hardening layer formed on the resist and the internal nonhardening layer, the resist for use as a mask coated on the semiconductor substrate and doped with impurity, characterized by comprising an elipsometer for causing a linearly polarized light to enter the semiconductor substrate to detect a reflected, elliptically polarized light during plasma ashing, and detecting the interface between the hardening layer and the nonhardening layer and the interface between the nonhardening layer and the semiconductor substrate.
