Abstract

An etching method includes a first etching step, a processing step, and a second etching step. The first etching step is performed to etch a substrate on which a silicon oxide film and a silicon nitride film are formed with an etching liquid. The processing step is performed to process a pattern in the silicon oxide film on the substrate with a pattern shape processing liquid after the first etching step. The second etching step is performed to etch the substrate with the etching liquid after the processing step.
