Abstract

An edge ring includes a ramp surface of which a height decreases from an outer edge-side portion toward an inner edge-side portion. The edge ring is configured to satisfy the relation of T2/T1>T4/T3. Where, T1 is a thickness of the edge ring, before plasma treatment, at a first position on the ramp surface of the inner edge-side portion, and T2 is a thickness of the edge ring, before plasma treatment, at a second position on the ramp surface of the outer edge-side portion. T3 is a thickness of the edge ring, after plasma treatment, at the first position, and T4 is a thickness of the edge ring, after plasma treatment, at the second position.
