ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a silicon wafer etching method in which etching is performed through use of an etchant. The etchant is an alkali aqueous solution which contains an alkali component in a concentration ranging from 50.6% to 55.0% by weight. The alkali component is preferably sodium hydroxide. The silicon wafer etching method can reduce not only surface roughness but also dispersion thereof.
