摘要： An insulation layer is selectively formed by exposing the surface of a workpiece to an atmosphere comprising a mixture of a halogen-based gas and a raw gas containing a compoundable element chemically bondable with an element of a material constituting surface layer of the workpiece to form an insulating compound. The surface layer of the workpiece is formed of a non-insulating material, such as a metallic material or a semiconductor material. Light rays are directly irradiated on the selected region or regions of the surface of the workpiece through the atmosphere of the gaseous mixture, thereby dissociating said halogen-based gas. As a result, a layer comprising the insulating compound is formed on the selected region of the surface of the workpiece on which the light rays have been directly irradiated.
