The present invention relates to a substrate etching device capable of improving uniformity of in-plane density of generated plasma to uniformly etch an entire substrate surface. A plasma etching device 1 includes a chamber 2 having a plasma generation space 3 and a processing space 4 set therein, a coil 30 disposed outside an upper body portion 6, a platen 40 disposed in the processing space 4 for placing a substrate K thereon, an etching gas supply mechanism 25 supplying an etching gas into the plasma generation space 3, a coil power supply mechanism 35 supplying RF power to the coil 30, and a platen power supply mechanism 45 supplying RF power to the platen 40. Further, a tapered plasma density adjusting member 20 is fixed on an inner wall of the chamber 2 between the plasma generation space 3 and the platen 40 and, in an upper portion of the chamber 2, a cylindrical core member 10 having a tapered portion formed thereon having a diameter decreasing toward a lower end surface thereof is arranged to extend downward. |
