Etching method, etching apparatus, and storage medium

1. A method of etching a silicon oxide film formed on a substrate, comprising:

supplying a mixture gas of a halogen element-containing gas and a basicity gas onto a surface of the silicon oxide film;

modifying the silicon oxide film to produce a reaction product; and

after producing the reaction product, heating the reaction product to remove the reaction product,

wherein modifying the silicon oxide film and heating the reaction product are performed using one chamber, and

wherein in heating the reaction product, the reaction product is selectively heated by a heating unit without heating the substrate.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the heating unit is configured to radiate microwaves to the reaction product.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein modifying the silicon oxide film includes generating plasma by converting the mixture gas using the microwaves.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the plasma is a remote plasma.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the heating unit is configured to radiate an infrared light having a predetermined wavelength to the reaction product.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the predetermined wavelength of the infrared light ranges from 2.5 to 4.0 μm.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein heating the reaction product includes arranging a substrate on which the silicon oxide film is formed to approach a light source configured to generate the infrared light.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the halogen element-containing gas is at least one selected from a group consisting of an HF gas, an F 2 gas, an NF 3 gas, a CH 3 F gas, an SF 6 gas and a ClF 3 gas, and the basicity gas includes an NF 3 gas.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, after producing the reaction product, stopping the supply of the mixture gas and exhausting the mixture gas from the surface of the silicon oxide film before heating the reaction product.
