Abstract
An etching method for semiconductor element is provided. The etching method includes the following procedure. First, a to-be-etched substrate is provided. Then, a silicon-rich silicon oxide (SRO) layer is formed on the to-be-etched substrate. Afterwards, an anti-reflective layer is formed on the SRO layer. Then, a patterned photo resist layer is formed on the anti-reflective layer. Afterwards, the anti-reflective layer, the SRO layer and the to-be-etched substrate is etched so as to form an opening.
