Abstract

A processing chamber accommodating a mounting table includes a first region and a second region. As the mounting table rotates, a substrate mounting region of the mounting table moves in a circumferential direction around the axis to pass through the first region and the second region. A first gas supply unit supplies a precursor gas to the first region from an injection unit disposed to face the mounting table. An exhaust outlet exhausts an exhaust port formed to extend along a closed path surrounding the exhaust outlet. A second gas supply unit supplies purge gas from an injection port formed to extend along a closed path surrounding the exhaust port. A plasma generation unit generates plasma from a reaction gas in the second region. An angular range of the second region is larger than an angular range of the first region.
