Abstract
A substrate processing method includes providing a substrate into a process chamber; introducing a reference light into the process chamber; generating a plasma light in the process chamber while performing an etching process on the substrate; receiving the reference light and the plasma light; and detecting an etching end point by analyzing the plasma light and the reference light. Detecting the etching end point includes a compensation adjustment based on a change rate of an absorption signal of the reference light with respect to a change rate of an emission signal of the plasma light.
