Abstract
A plasma generating electrode of the invention present includes at least a pair of electrodesat least one electrodeof the pair of electrodesincluding a plate-like ceramic bodyas a dielectric and a conductive filmdisposed inside the ceramic plateand having a plurality of through-holesformed through the conductive filmin its thickness direction, the through-holes having a cross-sectional shape including an arc shape along a plane perpendicular to the thickness direction. The plasma generating electrode can generate uniform and stable plasma at low power consumption.
