た。BACKGROUND ART A typical prior art technique uses plasma to etch the surface of a workpiece. Although this plasma etching technique can be expected to provide high-precision processing, there are problems in that the processing speed is slow and a mask for fine processing is required. In addition, in conventional laser processing,
There are problems such as deterioration and cracking due to heat, and even in laser processing in a reactive gas, that is, laser-induced etching using a thermochemical reaction, the material has a high transmittance or reflectance at the laser wavelength. There were limitations such as slow reaction or no reaction at all.

ザー照射とを同時に用いる加工装置である。Means for Solving the Unlucky Point The present invention irradiates the surface of a workpiece placed in plasma with a laser beam, and selectively performs accelerated etching or accelerated debonosilane on the portion of the workpiece surface irradiated with the laser beam. This processing method uses plasma and laser irradiation simultaneously. Still, the present invention comprises: a reaction chamber in which a workpiece is housed and a portion facing the surface of the workpiece is translucent; a means for forming plasma in the reaction chamber; and a means for generating a laser beam. A laser beam irradiation/mensor means for irradiating the surface to be processed with focused light through the light-transmitting part of the reaction chamber and magnifying the area irradiated with the laser beam, and a reaction chamber and a laser beam irradiating/inspection means. The present invention is a processing device that simultaneously uses plasma and laser irradiation, and is characterized by including a means for relatively moving the means.

ン加工が可能となる。Function According to the present invention, a material that can be plasma etched even at a low speed causes a local temperature rise by irradiating the material with a focused laser beam in the wavelength M range for which the material has sufficient absorption rate. The reaction can be made faster, and this large difference in reaction speed enables maskless fine pattern processing by scanning the laser beam and the workpiece relative to each other.
また被加工物材料のレーザー光の吸収率が低い場合でも
、表面付近のプラズマによる活性種がレーザー光を吸収
する場合、光化学反応により反応性がより高くなるため
、エツチングやデボノション反応はより高速化でとる。In addition, even if the absorption rate of the laser beam of the workpiece material is low, if the active species generated by the plasma near the surface absorb the laser beam, the reactivity will be higher due to photochemical reaction, so the etching and debomination reactions will be faster. Take it.

ことがで訃る。Furthermore, even in the case of materials for which plasma etching is almost impossible, the deposition of plasma active species on the surface
In this case, even if the material has a low absorption rate for laser light, if the debossed material has a high absorption rate, it will cause a temperature rise in the laser irradiated area. It becomes possible to also etch the substrate material, which is the workpiece, by a thermochemical reaction. Furthermore, since the debossing process can be caused to occur much faster than the thermochemical reaction, etching can be carried out continuously at high speed.
