Method of manufacturing semiconductor device

摘要

A first conductivity layer and a first insulating film are successively formed on a channel layer, and a photoresist film is formed on the first insulating film. The photoresist film is selectively exposed to light using a photomask and patterned. Using the patterned photoresist film as a mask, the first insulating film and the first conductivity layer are etched to form source electrodes from the first conductivity layer. Using the first insulating film and the source electrodes as a mask, an impurity of one conductivity type is diffused into exposed portions of the channel layer to form source regions. A second insulating film is formed in covering relation to side walls and upper surfaces of the source electrodes. Using the second insulating film as a mask, the channel layer and the common drain layer are etched to form trenches in the source regions, the channel layer, and the common drain layer. A third insulating film is formed on surfaces of the trenches, and a second conductive layer is formed as a gate electrode on the entire surface so as to fill up the trenches and cover the second insulating film.
