ABSTRACT:
An aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride layer (III-V nitride semiconductor layer) is formed on the surface of a silicone carbide substrate. The aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride layer is dry-etched from an exposed surface, using a chlorine-based gas (first gas) and a surface via hole is thereby formed. A back via hole, which is to be connected to the surface via hole, is formed by dry-etching the silicon carbide substrate from an exposed back side using a fluorine-based gas (second gas).
