ABSTRACT:
A dry etching method for forming tungsten wiring having a tapered shape and having a large specific selectivity with respect to a base film is provided. If the bias power density is suitably regulated, and if desired portions of a tungsten thin film are removed using an etching gas having fluorine as its main constituent, then the tungsten wiring having a desired taper angle can be formed.
