Zusammenfassung:A method and a device for matching an impedance of pulse radio frequency plasma, and a plasma processing device are provided. In the method, a matched frequency is searched for sequentially in high radio frequency power phases of an i-th pulse period and multiple pulse periods following the i-th pulse period, and a specific modulation frequency determined in a process of searching for the matched frequency in a previous pulse is assigned as an initial frequency for the subsequent pulse. In this way, it is equivalent to increasing a width of a first radio frequency power phase of a pulse period. Therefore, by sequentially performing frequency modulation in the first radio frequency power phases of the multiple pulses, a matched frequency of pulse radio frequency plasma of a high pulse frequency can be found, thereby achieving impedance matching of plasma of a high pulse frequency.
