Provided is a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus that can etch a metal film containing a transition metal element at high speed and with high accuracy by using a complexing gas. The semiconductor manufacturing apparatus includes: a vacuum container 60; a processing chamber 1 that is provided in the vacuum container, and includes a stage 4 on which a sample 3 formed with a metal film containing a transition metal element is placed; and a vaporization chamber 2 that is provided in the vacuum container, and includes a vaporizing nozzle unit 70 configured to vaporize a complexing gas raw material liquid supplied from an outside. A complexing gas obtained by vaporizing the complexing gas raw material liquid is introduced into the processing chamber to etch the metal film of the sample.
