Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the over-etching of a first electrode layer by coating the upper surface of the first electrode layer with a protective film smaller in the etching rate than an interlayer insulating film. CONSTITUTION:A first eiectrode layer 6 coated with a protective film 4 with a desired pattern is formed. An interlayer insulating film 7 coating the first electrode layer 6 and having a flat upper surface is attached. The interlayer insulating film 7 is dry-etched, using a resist layer 8 as a mask to form a plural ity of contact holes 9. The contact holes 9 are shaped by etching the interlayer insulating film 7 only in the same depth at uniform velocity until they reach to the protective film 4 on the first electrode layer 6. The interlayer insulating film 7 is etched during a time when the protective film 4 is etched, and the contact holes 9 reach up to a semiconductor substrate 1. The protective film 4 on the first electrode layer 6 and the interlayer insulating film 7 remaining on the substrate 1 are completely etched approximately simultaneously. Accord ingly, there is no possibility in which the first electrode layer 6 is not overetched.

C) Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the conventional semiconductor device manufacturing method described above, the surfaces of the first electrode layer (15) and the semiconductor substrate (11) are flattened. The thickness of the interlayer insulating film (16) is different. Specifically, about 1 on the semiconductor substrate (11)
4,000 people, and about 70 people on the first electrode layer (15)
00 people. Therefore, if the contact hole (18) is etched at the same time, the contact hole (18) is quickly formed on the first electrode M (15), and the contact hole (18) is etched until the contact hole (18) is etched up to the semiconductor substrate (11). ) The electrode layer (15) is overetched. For this reason, there were problems in that the first electrode layer (15) became thinner, its resistance value increased, and damage to the first electrode layer (15) increased.
