Abstract

PURPOSE:To form a plurality of minute etching grooves having different depths in the same substrate, by a first process, by which a plurality of the grooves are formed on the same substrate by using an etching method leaving a (111) surface of the silicn substrate, and a second etching process by which the depth of the groove is increased. CONSTITUTION:The Si substrate, whose main surface is a (100) surface, is processed by a crystal surface dependent etching method as follows: the etching of the groove 11 with a narrow width L1 is stopped halfway by the (111) surface 12, and the etching of the groove 13 with a broad width L2 is not stopped up to the end of the etching, with a specified difference in depth being provided. Then, the etching is additionally performed by using the secnd etching process characterized by no crystal surface dependence and a few amount of side etching, so that the depth of the groove 11 with the narrow width L1 becomes a specified depth D1. By forming the etching mask only once, the etching grooves having the different depths can be simultaneously formed, and the widths of the grooves can be made minute.

Example (A Si substrate having a main surface of the 1003 plane is etched using a conventional crystal plane dependent etching method to create an etching difference and not to stop until the etching is completed. In this way, the first etching process is performed. Through the etching process, a step is first created, and then a narrow width is created as shown in Figure 2 (b) K.
Etching is added using a second etching process which is not dependent on the crystal plane and has a small amount of side etching so that the groove 11 has a predetermined depth DI.
