Abstract

A process apparatus comprises a process chamber containing a semiconductor wafer, a gas being able to be supplied to and exhausted from the process chamber, a support table for supporting an object to be processed, which is contained in the process chamber, a gas supply system for supplying the gas into the process chamber, and a gas exhaust system for exhausting the gas from the process chamber. An inner wall of the process chamber and the support table are formed of an aluminum-based material, and the surfaces of these are brought into contact with a fluorine-containing gas, thereby coating the surfaces with AlF.sub.3.
