PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize a clean surface of a cupper wiring, by removing an oxide film in high repeatability without generating ruggedness on the surface of the copper wiring. SOLUTION: After a vacuum chamber 101, in which a substrate 104 having copper wiring is housed, is evacuated by a vacuum pump, a gas (e.g. hydrogen) atmosphere is generated, and the substrate 104 is heated by a heating stage 101b at 400 deg.C for a minute, for the surface of the wiring to be cleaned, where the gas atmosphere reduces copper oxides, and includes a trace quantity of oxygen, and more specifically, a oxygen concentration in which a segregation of oxygen occurs on a copper surface, and a generation of an oxide layer does not occur.
