Appeal No. 2004-2192 Application No. 09/414,520 in response to introduction of a gas which contains at least carbon and fluorine, and a gas species is generated which contains a carbon and fluorine according to a plasma dissociation, the plasma processing method comprising the steps of: generating a plasma, wherein said plasma generation is effected using an electron cyclotron resonance system in which a microwave having a frequency of from 300 MHz to 1 GHz is employed and wherein a degree of plasma dissociation is an intermediate degree and said gas species containing carbon and fluorine is generated fully in the plasma, and controlling a temperature of a region which forms a side wall of said vacuum processing chamber to have a range of 10°C to 120°C. 7. A plasma processing method according to claim 6, wherein said plasma generation produces a plasma in which an electron energy is a range of from 0.25 eV to 1 eV. 9. A plasma processing method according to claim 6, wherein in said plasma generation, a drive of a plasma exiting power supply is carried out intermittently. 10. A plasma processing apparatus according to Claim 6, Claim 7 or Claim 9 wherein as a means for adjusting a temperature of said vacuum wall, a temperature adjusted coolant medium is used. -9-Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9Last modified: November 3, 2007
