PLASMA PROCESSING APPARATUS AND PLASMA PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

A plasma processing apparatus which can adjust ion energy on a wafer to a value in a desired range to perform machining with high precision or processing stably for a long time is provided. To the plasma processing apparatus which processes a wafer mounted on a mounting surface of an upper portion of a stage using plasma formed in a processing chamber while supplying radio frequency power from a power supply to an electrode disposed in the stage a detector disposed on an outer circumferential side of the mounting surface of the stage to detect a differential component Vpp between the maximum value and the minimum value and a DC component Vdc from a value of a bias voltage formed thereabove and a controller to adjust an output of the radio frequency bias power to make a value of Vpp/2+|Vdc| constant based on an output from the detector are provided.
