Abstract

A cusp field is applied between a plasma source of a vacuum chamber of a plasma anodization system and a substance such as a semiconductor substrate or a metal plate to be oxidized so that the substance may not be adversely affected by the plasma. The temperature control can be conducted independently of the plasma generating condition because the substance to be treated is not adversely affected by the plasma in a direct manner.
