A main etching step is effected in a state shown in FIG. 1A under a first pressure using a gas containing at least HBr, e.g., a mixture gas of HBr and Cl2 as an etching gas. The main etching is ended before a silicon oxide film 102, as shown in FIG. 1B, is exposed. An over-etching process is effected under a second pressure higher than the first pressure using a gas containing at least HBr, e.g., an HBr single gas so as to completely expose the silicon oxide film 102 as shown in FIG. 1C. In such a way, the selectivity of a silicon-containing conductive layer with respect to the silicon oxide film is improved compared to conventional methods. Without etching the silicon oxide film layer, which is an underlying layer, and without marring the shape of the silicon-containing conductive film layer formed by etching, only the desired silicon-containing conductive film layer is removed by etching reliably.

A failure diagnosis method diagnoses a failure occurring in a diagnosis target apparatus including a drive mechanism having a drive member that receives power supply to operate and a power transmission member that transmits drive force of the drive member to another member. The method includes automatically acquiring by a sensor an operation state signal indicating an operation state during the drive mechanism operating for a predetermined period; and analyzing the automatically acquired operation state signal based on a failure probability model, which is obtained by modeling a cause of failure occurring in the diagnosis target apparatus with using probabilities, to execute failure diagnosis with respect to each of constituent members of the drive mechanism.

A fault diagnosis section activates a driving component alone, measures an operation state signal and a paper passage time, and stores feature values (Vm, σv, Tqs, σts) extracted as a determination reference in a storage medium. A paper passage fault determination section determines whether or not a fault has arisen on the basis of the paper passage time when an apparatus is under normal operating conditions. A diagnosis target block determination section determines an order to operate a detail fault diagnosis when it is determined that there is a plurality of diagnosis target blocks. When the driving component is activated alone under actual operation conditions, the operation state signal Vf is obtained, and an operation state fault determination section conducts diagnosis on whether or not a fault has arisen on the driving component and a state of the fault, and whether or not a fault has arisen on other power transmission components and a nature of the fault with reference to the feature values as the determination reference on the basis of a degree of deviation from a normal range.

A transfer device for transferring an object to be transferred in a predetermined direction has a drive mechanism unit, a transfer direction displacement information acquiring unit, a skew direction displacement information acquiring unit, and a transfer processing unit. The drive mechanism unit also has roll parts which cause the object to be transferred to move in the direction with a rotational force.The transfer direction displacement information acquiring unit and the skew direction displacement information acquiring unit radiate a predetermined measuring wave toward the object, so that the units acquire the displacement information in each of the directions. Based on the displacement information, the transfer processing unit performs a predetermined processing.
