A substrate processing apparatus for processing a substrate by using a plasma includes a processing chamber configured to airtightly accommodate a substrate, a lower electrode serving as a mounting table configured to mount thereon the substrate in the processing chamber, an upper electrode, serving as a shower plate having a plurality of gas supply openings, provided opposite to the substrate to be mounted on the mounting table, an insulating member disposed to surround an outer peripheral portion of the upper electrode, and a processing gas supply source configured to supply a processing gas into the processing chamber through the shower plate. The substrate processing apparatus further includes a heating unit provided at the insulating member to heat the insulating member. |
