In the implementation, for example, electron beam lithography is used to pattern the channel region of the first semiconductor layer 5. For example, the same steps as in step S2 are used to form a patterned insulating layer 6 region. The patterned substrate 2 is immersed in deionized water, the residual developer is washed away, and the film is dried.
