Abstract:
A method MT includes etching a wafer W using plasma generated in a processing container. The etching includes a process of inclining and rotating a holding structure holding the wafer W during execution of the etching and the process successively creating a plurality of inclined rotation states RT(φ, t) with respect to the holding structure. In the inclined rotation states, the wafer W is rotated about a central axis of the wafer W over a predetermined process time while maintaining a state where the central axis is inclined with respect to a reference axis of the processing container which is in the same plane as the central axis. A combination of a value φ of an inclination angle AN of the central axis with respect to the reference axis and the process time t differs for each of the plurality of inclined rotation states.

Claim (Index 5):
The method of  claim 4 , wherein respective values of the parameters \u03b1, \u03b2, \u03b3, \u03b6, and \u03be are determined for each value depending on the value of the inclination angle.
