An etching apparatus comprises a pair of electrodes provided to face each other in a processing vessel, a permanent magnet for forming a magnetic field substantially parallel to a surface of a to-be-processed object which is placed between the paired electrodes, a gas introduction section for introducing etching gas into the processing vessel, a high-frequency generator for applying high-frequency voltage to the paired electrodes for generating plasma, and a high-frequency control section for preventing plasma from being unevenly distributed by starting and stopping the application of high-frequency voltage by the high-frequency generator at fixed intervals.
