Embodiment Construction

[0030] In the prior art, when the semiconductor layer stack structure is etched, residues are easily generated, and the residues may affect the performance of the semiconductor device, and even lead to a decrease in the yield of the semiconductor device.

[0031] In order to reduce the residues, the materials and causes of the residues are analyzed. Combine below figure 2 , combined with the figure 2 Analysis of semiconductor devices.

[0032] During the process of etching to form the trench 10 , the etching rates of the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer are different, and an etching gas is used in the etching to form a polymer on the sidewall of the semiconductor layer with a slower etching rate.

[0033] The polymer is equivalent to a small mask. During the etching process, the polymer is used as a mask for etching. The semiconductor layer located under the polymer is not easily removed and remains at the bottom of the trench 10 to form a resid...

Abstract

The invention provides an etching method and a semiconductor device. The etching method comprises the following steps: providing a substrate; forming a semiconductor layer stacking structure on the substrate, wherein the semiconductor layer stacking structure comprises at least two semiconductor layers arranged in parallel on the substrate and contacting each other; performing first etching on the semiconductor layer stacking structure to realize patterning; and performing second etching on the semiconductor layer stacking structure to remove a polymer formed at the interface of the semiconductor layers through the first etching. The invention further provides the semiconductor device which is formed by the etching method. The performance and output of the semiconductor device can be improved.
