There is provided a wet etching method including an etchant supply step of supplying an etchant from an etchant supply nozzle to a to-be-etched surface of a workpiece, an etching step of etching the to-be-etched surface with the etchant remaining on the to-be-etched surface, and an etchant removal step of, after performing the etching step, removing the etchant, which still remains on the resulting etched surface, from the etched surface. The etchant supply step, the etching step, and the etchant removal step are repeated a plurality of times in this order.

Wet etching method and wet etching system

A gettering layer forming method includes a coating step of applying a solution of metal salt to a back side of a wafer, and a diffusing step of heating the wafer after performing the coating step, thereby diffusing the metal salt on the back side of the wafer to form a gettering layer containing the metal salt on the back side of the wafer, in which the metal salt is diffused in the gettering layer.
