Post-treatment method for dry etching

摘要

In order to provide a post-treatment method for dry etching which is improved to be capable of completely removing a deposit resulting from dry etching for forming a wire, a workpiece layer is formed on an underlayer oxide film which is formed on a wafer. A resist pattern having a prescribed shape is formed on the workpiece layer. The workpiece layer is dry-etched through the resist pattern serving as a mask. The resist pattern is removed. Ice particles or droplets are injected toward the wafer, thereby removing the deposit.
