A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a silicon nitride film having an opening portion on a semiconductor substrate, forming a silicon oxide film on the silicon nitride film and on a side face of the opening portion, performing an etching treatment to the silicon oxide film so that a sidewall is formed on the side face of the opening portion, forming a trench on the semiconductor substrate with use of the sidewall and the silicon nitride film as a mask, and forming an insulating layer in the trench. The step of forming the silicon oxide film includes oxidizing the silicon nitride film with a plasma oxidation method or a radical oxidation method. |
