である。Next, the etching electrode 8 is moved to the etching electrode drive unit 11.
When the switch 13 is closed and the film-forming gas is introduced from the film-forming gas inlet 4, the electrode is faced to the holding electrode 21A. A high voltage is applied between the discharge power supply 5 and the discharge power source 5 to form a film. At this time, since the etching electrode 8 electrically connected to the holding electrode 21A is brought into contact with the part where the insulating film on the back surface of the semiconductor substrate 3 has been removed by etching, the plasma density concentrated on the semiconductor substrate 3 is as follows. It is not affected by the insulating film formed on the back surface of the wafer in a step before plasma CVD and is constant on any semiconductor substrate, so it is possible to grow a film with uniform thickness and quality. In addition, 6 in Figure 1
