A plasma processing apparatus includes at least one asymmetry member that causes a non-uniformity of plasma density around the high frequency electrode; and a plasma density distribution controller that is arranged depending on arrangement of the at least one asymmetry member to suppress the non-uniformity of plasma density around the high frequency electrode in the azimuthal direction. The plasma density distribution controller includes a first conductor which has first and second surfaces facing opposite directions to each other and is electrically connected with the rear surface of the high frequency electrode with respect to the first high frequency power; and a second conductor which includes a first connecting portion(s) electrically connected with a portion of the second surface of the first conductor and a second connecting portion electrically connected with a conductive grounding member electrically grounded around the high frequency electrode with respect to the first high frequency power. |
