Abstract
A laminated layer having a layer containing Al (In) and a layer not containing Al (In) alternately laminated one upon another is plasma etched by an etchant gas which can etch both the layers containing and not containing Al (In). An additive gas containing F is added to the etchant gas while a layer not containing Al (In) is etched. When the surface of the layer containing Al (In) is exposed, fluorides are formed on the surface of the layer containing Al (In) and the etching is automatically stopped. An emission peak specific to Al (In) is monitored to detect which layer is presently etched.
