A microcrystalline semiconductor film is formed over a substrate using a plasma CVD apparatus which includes a reaction chamber in such a manner that a deposition gas and hydrogen are supplied to the reaction chamber in which the substrate is set between a first electrode and a second electrode; and plasma is generated in the reaction chamber by supplying high-frequency power to the first electrode. Note that the plasma density in a region overlapping with an end portion of the substrate in a region where the plasma is generated is set to be higher than that in a region which is positioned more on the inside than the region overlapping with the end portion of the substrate, so that the microcrystalline semiconductor film is formed over a region which is positioned more on the inside than the end portion of the substrate. |
