Abstract

An etching method using a remote plasma source (RPS) and a method of fabricating a semiconductor device, the etching method including generating a plasma by supplying a process gas to at least one RPS and applying power to the at least one RPS; and etching a first material film including SiNx by supplying the plasma and at least one control gas selected from HBr, HCl, HI, NH3, SiH4, CHF3, and CH2F2 to a process chamber.
