1. A method for etching a protective film, comprising the steps of:
- preparing a substrate having a protective film formed on a front surface and a recess in a back surface opposite the front surface;
forming a resist pattern on the protective film; and
etching the protective film using plasma while applying a bias voltage, using the resist pattern as a mask;
the bias voltage being increased according to the manner of decrease in the dielectric constant of a region of the substrate corresponding to a covered region of the front surface at which the protective film is present in the protective film etching step, resulting from an increase in a percentage of a volume occupied by the recess within a volume of the region of the substrate.

Abstract
A substrate having a protective film formed on a front surface and a recess in a back surface opposite the front surface is prepared. A resist pattern is formed on the protective film. The protective film is etched using plasma while applying a bias voltage, using the resist pattern as a mask. The bias voltage is increased according to the manner of decrease in the dielectric constant of a region of the substrate corresponding to a covered region of the front surface at which the protective film is present.
