ABSTRACT:
A method for fabricating a semiconductor device according to the present invention includes the steps of: forming an oxide film on a substrate having a silicon region at least on the surface thereof; defining a resist pattern on the oxide film; placing the substrate on an electrode provided inside a reaction chamber of a plasma etching apparatus, and etching the oxide film by using plasma generated from a gas including a fluorocarbon gas with a bias voltage applied to the substrate; and removing fluorine from the reaction chamber by generating oxygen plasma inside the reaction chamber with substantially no bias voltage applied to the substrate.
