Abstract

The invention relates to a manufacturing method and a used etching method of a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor (CMOS) imaging sensor. The etching method comprises the following steps: blowing manufacture procedure gas into a reaction cavity, wherein the manufacture procedure gas comprises etching gas and side wall protective gas; exerting source power and bias power to the reaction cavity, wherein the bias power varies in an impulse mode; and conducting an etching manufacture procedure and a deposit manufacture procedure in the reaction cavity in an alternate mode, wherein the source power is lower than 2,000 watt. By means of the manufacturing method and the used etching method of the CMOS imaging sensor, the phenomenon of notching can be effectively avoided, product yield can be improved, implementation is simple and popularization is easy.

Description
