Abstract

PURPOSE:To form patterns different in depths by dry etching using two or more mask materials different in etching speed, or by forming a modification part in a part of a single mask material or dry etching with its thickness changed. CONSTITUTION:A substrate 11 is dry etched using a dry etching device by using GaAs (semiconductor), positive resist material as a material for a mask 12, and SiO2 as a material for a mask 13. Since the etching speed of the substrate 11 is about 1700Angstrom /min, that of the mask of a resist material is about 150Angstrom /min, and that of the mask 13 using SiO2 is about 500Angstrom /min, grooves 14A, 14B different in depths are formed at the same time. In addition to this, an etching speed can be made slow by hardening transformation using chemicals, and patterns different in depths can be formed on the substrate 11 by changing the thickness of a part of a resist part 12. This makes it possible to form many grooves different in depths on any place on a substrate by one dry etching.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, wet etching has been the mainstream method for manufacturing semiconductor devices, but it has various problems, such as the surface orientation of the semiconductor wafer, which may become a normal mesa or a reverse mesa depending on the surface orientation. Due to problems such as dependence, dry etching is now becoming mainstream in place of wet etching. However, even in this dry etching, the depth of the groove that can be formed by one etching is determined by the relative values of the etching rates of the mask material and the semiconductor substrate. FIG. 8 shows a conventional method of forming grooves by dry etching. In the figure, 1 is a base and 2 is a mask material. When this substrate 1 is mounted on a dry etching device and etched, the depth of the etching groove is determined by the relative ratio of the etching speed between the mask material 2 and the substrate 1. Usually, this ratio is set to about 1:10 (two mask materials) to increase the depth of the groove. The state after etching is shown in FIG. If the depths of the grooves 4A and 4B in the base 1 are the same and are approximately 3μ, then the mask material 2 also has a depth of approximately 0.
.. It is etched to about 31 um and becomes like 3. For the above reasons, when etching, it is necessary to perform etching to match the deepest groove in the substrate 1, or to divide the etching into several steps to change the depth of the groove. In other words, there was a drawback in that it was not possible to simultaneously form a large number of grooves of different depths by etching.
