The present invention relates to a silicon etching solution which is used for selectively etching a dummy gate made of silicon in a process for producing a transistor including a laminate formed of at least a high dielectric material film and a metal gate containing hafnium, zirconium, titanium, tantalum or tungsten by the method of removing the dummy gate made of silicon to replace the dummy gate with the metal gate and which includes 0.1 to 40% by weight of at least one alkali compound selected from the group consisting of ammonia, a diamine and a polyamine represented by the general formula (1), 0.01 to 40% by weight of at least one polyhydric alcohol selected from the group consisting of specific polyhydric alcohols and a non-reducing sugar, and 40 to 99.89% by weight of water, and a process for producing a transistor using the silicon etching solution. |
