ABSTRACT:
A method is for dry etching metal films having a high melting point, such as tungsten (W) films. A SiO.sub.2 film is grown on a silicon substrate after which a W film is deposited using sputtering technology. Then, a photoresist film is deposited and is patterned by optical lithography. A semiconductor substrate thus formed is placed in a dry etching system of a narrow gap type with an anode coupled configuration and is etched using a gas mixture composed of SF.sub.6, Cl.sub.2 and O.sub.2 under conditions such that the flow rate ratio of the gases SF.sub.6 /Cl.sub.2 /O.sub.2 are 20.0:0.5.about.1.5:3.about.7. With this, it is possible to achieve excellent selective etching of the W film with respect to the SiO.sub.2 film that is used as an underlying film.
