ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprises a step of preparing a semiconductor substrate (12) having a surface layer of silicon, a step of forming a conductive thin film (14) of a silicide composed of a metal having a high melting point and silicon on the semiconductor substrate (12), a step of forming an oxidation-resistant mask (18) on a first portion (14a) of the conductive thin film (14) and a step of converting a second, exposed, portion (19) of the conductive thin film (14) into an insulating film (19a) of a composite oxide composed of silicon oxide and an oxide of the subject metal by oxidizing the exposed portion (19) while maintaining the first portion (14a) of the conductive thin film (14) covered by the mask (18).
