ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device having a movable portion includes the steps of: forming a trench on a semiconductor layer so that the trench reaches an insulation layer; and forming a movable portion by etching a sidewall of the trench so that the semiconductor layer is separated from the insulation layer. The steps of forming the trench and forming the movable portion are performed by a reactive ion etching method. The insulation layer disposed on the bottom of the trench is prevented from charging positively in the step of forming the trench. The insulation layer disposed on the bottom of the trench is charged positively in the step of forming the movable portion.
