Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To cut down the device cost for increasing the throughput by a method wherein an exhaust chamber is connected to exhaust ports provided on the periphries of respective opposite electrodes while gas leading-in ports are provided on respective electrodes for arranging homogenizing sheets between the groups of respective parallel flat plate electrode couples. CONSTITUTION:Upper electrodes UE 11-UE 14 as shower electrodes are arranged to jet an etchant gas Ga toward lower electrodes. Besides, exhaust ports opening to exhaust chamber PC are provided in the space between chamber wall EW and the peripheries of the lower electrodes LE 11-LE 14. Thus, the throughput can be increased while cutting down the device cost without widening the electrode area. Furthermore, partition plates UP1, UP2, UP3 are provided in an etching chamber. Through these procedures, the etchant gas flow and plasma discharge thereof between the groups of respective parallel flat electrode couples can be homogenized.
