ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a plasma processing apparatus having an electrode plate arranging therein, an upper electrode to which a dielectric member or a cavity portion is provided, a dimension or a dielectric constant of which is determined in such a manner that resonance is generated at a frequency of high-frequency power supplied to the center of the back side and an electric field orthogonal to the electrode plate is generated, and a susceptor as a lower electrode so as to be opposed to each other, in order to reduce unevenness of an electric field distribution on the surface of the electrode in a plasma processing using a high-density plasma capable of coping with further refinement.
