Abstract
A plasma processing apparatus includes a processing container; a placement table provided in the processing container and including a placement region on which a workpiece is placed for a plasma processing; a baffle structure that defines a first space and a second space, and including a first member and at least one second member; a gas supply portion connected to the first space; a first pressure gauge connected to the first space; an exhaust apparatus connected to the second space; a second pressure gauge connected to the second space; a driving mechanism that moves the at least one second member in a vertical direction; a displacement gauge configured to measure a position or a distance of the second member; and a controller that controls the driving mechanism. The controller controls the driving mechanism such that a pressure of the first space becomes a predetermined pressure designated by a recipe.
