PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ion beam fine machining method for forming a fine circuit pattern used for a quantum device on an Si substrate surface without forming any mask for dry etching. SOLUTION: On the surface of an Si wafer substrate 1, an Al layer 2 and an Si amorphous layer 3 are formed, and then a metal ion 6 is implanted onto the surface of the Si amorphous layer 3 through a mask 5. After that, the mask 5 is removed for implanting a metal ion 9. A surface natural oxide film is selectively substituted for SiO<SB>2</SB>7 or is generated under the presence of a surface natural oxide film 4 that is formed on the surface of the Si amorphous layer 3 or oxygen molecule radiation, and further ions are implanted. As a result, after Al<SB>x</SB>O<SB>y</SB>8 is produced on the surface of the Al layer 2, dry etching is made in one atom layer unit by bromide, and the surface natural oxide film other than a portion that is substituted for SiO<SB>2</SB>and Al<SB>x</SB>O<SB>y</SB>8, the Si amorphous layer, the Al layer, and one portion of the Si wafer substrate are removed.
