Abstract
To provide an etchant for copper oxide, control of the etching rate, and etching method using the same for enabling exposed portions to be selectively etched against unexposed portions in the case of performing exposure with laser light using an oxide of copper as a heat-reactive resist material, an etchant of the invention is an etchant for copper oxide to selectively remove a copper oxide of a particular valence from a copper oxide-containing layer containing copper oxides of different valences, and is characterized by containing at least an amino acid, a chelating agent and water, where a weight percentage of the amino acid is higher than that of the chelating agent, and pH thereof is 3.5 or more.
