Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising: preparing a substrate including a first insulating film and a first layer including a first region and a second region separated by said first region, said first layer being formed on said first insulating film, said first layer comprising a first substance; forming a second insulating film in said first region in said first layer; forming a third insulating film to expose a periphery of said second region on said second region; forming a first electrode having said first substance on said third insulating film; adjusting an exposed area of said first substance to a prescribed area by forming either a third region being formed on a surface of said second insulating film and being comprised of said first substance to expose a surface of said third region in an epitaxial growth, or said third region being buried in said second insulating film and being comprised of said first substance said surface of said third region being exposed in said epitaxial growth; and conducting epitaxial growth of said first substance on said first electrode, to expose said second region on a periphery of said third insulating film and said third region.
