LIQUID PHASE ETCHING METHOD AND LIQUID PHASE ETCHING APPARATUS

摘要

A liquid phase etching method which comprises spraying a chemically reactive liquid, with a specific speed, to a solid article, an aggregate of solid articles or a gelatinous material to be treated; and a liquid etching apparatus having a mechanism for holding a processing object to be treated and a nozzle structure for spraying a chemically reactive liquid to the processing object to be treated which is held by the mechanism. The method and apparatus allow the significant improvement of the etching rate while maintaining the accuracy of etching.
