In the present invention, an etching method includes the following: disposing a subject-to-processing substrate which includes silicon and silicon-germanium in a chamber; supplying the chamber with processing gas which comprises H2 gas and Ar gas in a state of excitation; and selectively etching the silicon with respect to the silicon-germanium by the processing gas which is in the excited state. Due to this configuration, silicon can be etched, with high selectivity, with respect to the silicon-germanium. |
