Abstract
A high frequency introducing means is provided which comprises a high frequency electrode having a shape of a bar or plate for generating plasma by high frequency power, and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting an absolute value of reactance between an end of the electrode opposite to a high frequency power introducing point of the electrode and a grounded portion. A plasma treatment apparatus and a plasma treatment method are also provided employing the above high frequency introducing means. A deposition film of high quality is formed stably and efficiently in an extremely uniform thickness and an extremely uniform quality at a high speed on a base member of a large area by adjusting the absolute value of the reactance.
