An ashing method of a target substrate is applied after plasma-etching a part of a low-k film by using a patterned resist film as a mask in a vacuum processing chamber. The method includes a process of removing the resist film in the vacuum processing chamber, and a pre-ashing process, performed prior to the main ashing process, for ashing the target substrate for a time period while maintaining the target substrate at a temperature in a range of from about 80 to 150° C.
