Abstract

A shower head is provided, in a processing chamber in which a substrate is processed, to face a mounting table for mounting the substrate thereon. The shower head includes: a facing surface that faces the mounting table to supply a gas to the substrate in a form of shower through a plurality of gas injection holes formed on the facing surface; an opposing surface provided opposite to the facing surface; a plurality of gas exhaust holes extending between the facing surface and the opposing surface to perform gas exhaust from the facing surface toward the opposing surface; and a plurality of electrodes provided on the opposing surface, an ion-confining voltage being applied to the electrodes.
