    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To selectively etch silicate glass at a speed faster than to silicon dioxide by bringing a material containing silicate glass and silicon dioxide into contact with an etching composition containing a specific amount of fluorine-containing compound and an organic solvent selected from oxolane, etc. SOLUTION: A material containing silicate glass and silicon dioxide and being doped with desirably about 0.5-10 wt.% of at least one element preferably selected from B, As, Sb and P (e.g. a blanket silicon wafer) is brought into contact with an etching composition containing about 0.05-3 mol of a fluorine- containing compound preferably selected from hydrofluoric acid, ammonium fluoride, a fluoroborate, tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate, fluoroboric acid or the like and an organic solvent selected from oxolane, sulfolane, an ester, a ketone, an aldehyde, a lactone, a hydrocarbon halide, a monohydric alcohol, an amine and an imide.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of etching silicon nitride with an etching rate which is at least as fast as that for silicon dioxide, by contacting a target material containing silicon nitride and silicon dioxide to a composite etchant which is composed of a fluorine-containing compound of a specified molar concentration, an organic solvent, and water of a specified molar concentration. SOLUTION: Silicon nitride lies in a target material containing silicon dioxide, and a composite etchant contacts to both the silicon nitride and the silicon dioxide. The composite etchant contains a fluorine-containing compound, an organic solvent, and water. The concentration of the fluorine-containing compound shall be approximately 0.1-3 mol/dm , more preferably approximately 0.15-1.5 mol/dm , and most preferably approximately 0.2-1 mol/dm . Generally, the concentration of the water shall be approximately 0.1-4 mol/dm , more preferably approximately 0.15-2 mol/dm , and most preferably approximately 0.2-1.5 mol/dm .

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the electrochemical melting of a metal induced by the exposure of a semiconductor to light during a chemical mechanical polishing, by preventing a PN junction from being exposed to light generating a photoelectric effect.
    SOLUTION: A PN junction 300 contains an n-type semiconductor material 320 and a p-type semiconductor materail 310 which are arranged in parallel, and shows a photoelectric effect under a certain condition. The photoelectric effect substantailly transforms the PN junction 300 to a cell supplying a current to metal connections 330, 340. The application of the photons of light 350 having sufficient energy to the PN junction 300 generates the photoelectric effect and a current source similar to a cell and an electrochemical melting by a photoelectric voltage. Therefore, the electrochemical melting is reduced by preventing the PN junction from being exposed to light generating the photoelectric effect.
