Abstract

PURPOSE: To determine the end point, etc. of the etching of the titled film in plasma, in high accuracy, even if the area to be etched is small, by using plasma light having a specific wavelength as the reference light to be monitored for the detection of the end point, etc. of etching.
CONSTITUTION: The material 4 to be etched is placed in the etching chamber 1, and the silicon nitride film 7 which is not covered with the resist 8 is etched with the plasma of gas such as freon (CF4-O2). During etching, the plasma light having wavelength of 337.0nm or 357.5nm is detected through a filter by the light sensor 2, and the intensity is recorded by the recorder 3. For example, the intensity of the light of 337.0nm wavelength rises simultaneously with the generation of plasma, and drops at the end of the etching, and the intensity difference is larger than that of the light used in the conventional process. Acoordingly, the end point can be determined in high accuracy and reliability. The accidental leak during etching can also be detected.
