Abstract

There is provided a technique, which includes: a reaction tube configured to form a process chamber in which a substrate is processed; an electrode fixing jig installed outside the reaction tube and configured to fix at least two electrodes for forming plasma in the process chamber; and a heating device installed outside the electrode fixing jig and configured to heat the reaction tube, wherein the at least two electrodes include at least one electrode to which a predetermined potential is applied and at least one electrode to which a reference potential is applied, and wherein a surface area of the at least one electrode to which the predetermined potential is applied is two times or more than a surface area of the at least one electrode to which the reference potential is applied.
