Abstract

Plasma processing methods of a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus which can minimize the amount of impurities adhered to the surface of a wafer, when a desired process using plasma is performed. According to the plasma processing methods of the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus, after the desired process is completed, the plasma generated over the wafer is diffused, and then the wafer is de-chucked.
