Abstract

When the occurrence of the bowing is controlled through the etching conditions, a change in etching conditions causes the bowing. Another problem is a requirement of the larger-sized apparatus for the substrate with a larger diameter in order to allow a whole substrate being subjected equally to the conditions under which no bowing occurs.In the present invention, a first etching is stopped at a depth where no bowing occurs to form an opening section. Next, a protective film for etching is formed on a region of the wall surface of the hole in the opening section where a bowing is liable to appear when an opening is formed further.After that, a second etching is carried out to form an opening further, and thereby a minute opening with an aspect ratio of 13 or higher is made, while suppressing the occurrence of the bowing well.
