Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of:forming a contact hole on an insulation film provided on a substrate from a top face of said insulation film to a bottom face thereof; providing a conductive material on said insulation film and filling an inside of said contact hole with said conductive material to obtain a contact; forming a resist pattern above said contact by performing a photolithographic step on said conductive material; selectively performing anisotropic etching for said conductive material by using said resist pattern as an etching mask to obtain a conductor pattern, thereby removing said resist pattern; forming a conductive film along an exposed surface of said conductor pattern and that of said insulation film including said contact; and performing anisotropic etching for said conductive film by using said surface of said insulation film as an etching stopper to leave a conductive sidewall directly making contact with a side face of said conductor pattern, said conductive sidewall extending no higher than a top face of the conductor pattern.
