ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device for preventing dielectric breakdown of gate electrodes attributable to needle-like protrusions caused inside a trench in the step of forming element isolation trench in which includes forming a silicon oxide film over a silicon nitride film as an etching mask for forming element isolation trenches, then cleaning the surface of a substrate with a hydrofluoric acid etching solution to lift off obstacles deposited over the surface of the silicon oxide film, before the step of patterning the silicon nitride film by using as a mask a photoresist film provided with an anti-reflection film therebelow.
