Patent ID: 7601626

Claim:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising: forming an electrode on a substrate; providing an insulating protection film that covers the electrode and the substrate while a part of the electrode is exposed; providing a resin layer that covers an entirety of the protection film and the exposed part of the electrode, the resin layer is formed of photosensitive resin; positioning a mask on the resin layer; radiating rays onto the mask so that a columnar projecting body having a flat upper end is obtained from the resin layer, and another part of the resin layer is removed; heating the columnar projecting body with radiation heat so that the columnar projection body is melted and a semicircular projection having a semicircular cross-sectional shape is formed; providing a conductive material layer that covers the exposed part of the electrode and the semicircular projection; and providing a conductive layer by patterning the conductive material layer, the conductive layer is electrically connected to the exposed part of the electrode, the conductive layer being extended to an upper surface of the semicircular projection.
