ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a plasma processing apparatus or a plasma processing method that can etch a multilayer film structure for constituting a gate structure with high accuracy and high efficiency. A plasma processing method of, on processing a sample on a sample stage112in a depressurized discharge room117, etching a multilayer film (including a high-k and a metal gate) at 0.1 Pa or less and with the sample stage112temperature-regulated by using a pressure gauge133to be used for pressure regulation and connected to the processing room and a main pump for exhaustion130.
