Etching method

An etching method for etching a silicon oxide film is provided that includes generating a plasma from a gas including a hydrogen-containing gas and a fluorine-containing gas using a high frequency power for plasma generation, and etching the silicon oxide film using the generated plasma. The fluorin...

More Information
Summary:An etching method for etching a silicon oxide film is provided that includes generating a plasma from a gas including a hydrogen-containing gas and a fluorine-containing gas using a high frequency power for plasma generation, and etching the silicon oxide film using the generated plasma. The fluorine-containing gas includes a hydrofluorocarbon gas, and the sticking coefficient of radicals generated from the hydrofluorocarbon gas is higher than the sticking coefficient of radicals generated from carbon tetrafluoride (CF4).
