ABSTRACT:
In a method for selectively etching a second silicon layer of a multilayer structure which includes a first silicon layer and the second silicon layer formed on the first silicon layer and doped with impurities according to the present invention, the second silicon layer is selectively etched by using an etching gas including freon-14 gas and a gas selected from a group composed of hydrogen chloride gas and chlorine gas.
