A dry etching apparatus that performs etching on a substrateplaced on a trayinside a chamberby covering the substratewith a plateprovided with opening portionsin which a distance D between the surface opposing the substrateand the substratein the peripheral portion of the plateis set shorter than the distance D between the surface opposing the substrateand the substratein the central portion of the plate. Textures can be thus formed homogeneously on the surface of the substrate.
