Method of manufacturing a semiconductor device

摘要

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprises the steps of masking desired parts of a semiconductor substrate with a material which is impervious to an etchant for the substrate, exposing the substrate to the etchant to thereby etch substrate parts which lie directly beneath end parts of the etchant-impervious material and substrate parts which are not masked, applying a solution preferentially into the parts directly beneath the end parts of the etchant-impervious material among the etched substrate parts, the solution being capable of being converted into a semiconduct or oxide by a predetermined heat treatment, and heat-treating the substrate in order to oxidize the etched substrate surface parts.
