Etching system and etching method

摘要

An etching method for subjecting a single film to be etched to etching comprised of a plurality of etching steps based on respectively different recipes, includes steps of generating and fixing a recipe which is a preset recipe to be applied to an etching step of the plurality of etching steps which affects an underlying film making contact with the single film to be etched, generating different recipes other than the preset recipe to be applied to other etching steps of the plurality of etching steps, wherein at least one of the different recipes for the other etching steps is generated on the basis of processed results, and conducting etching of the single film according to the recipes generated.
