Abstract

A plasma processing method to a substrate includes a first step of mounting a transfer carrier holding the substrate on a stage which is cooled and provided within a processing chamber; a second step of relatively moving the stage and a cover provided above the stage to cover a holding sheet and an annular frame of the transfer carrier with the substrate exposed from a window part formed at the cover, a third step of carrying out plasma processing on the substrate, a fourth step of cooling the cover, and a fifth step of unloading the transfer carrier holding the substrate from the processing chamber.
