Abstract:
A deposit on a target object can be removed or the amount thereof can be reduced after plasma etching is completed and before the target object is carried out of a chamber. A method of processing the target object is provided. The method includes etching including a main etching of etching an etching target film of the target object placed on a stage at a low temperature by generating plasma of a processing gas containing a fluorocarbon gas and/or a hydrofluorocarbon gas; raising, immediately after the etching is performed or immediately after the main etching is performed, a temperature of an electrostatic chuck; and carrying-out the target object from the chamber in a state that the temperature of the electrostatic chuck is set to a high temperature.

Claim (Index 5):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n neutralizing the electrostatic chuck after the etching of the etching target film is performed and before the carrying-out of the target object from the chamber is performed, wherein the raising of the temperature of the electrostatic chuck is performed when the neutralizing of the electrostatic chuck is being performed.
