Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent wiring discontinuity or the like at a continuity hole part by using an etching condition where the etching rates are different between silicon dioxide and silicon nitride at the time of hole opening of an insulating layer. CONSTITUTION:After patterning a metal 102 of the lower layer of a semiconductor substrate 101 by a photoetching method, a silicon dioxide film 103 is formed by vapor phase reaction. Further, a silicon nitride film 104 is formed by a plasma vapor phase growth method. Next, a positive type photoresist is applied on the silicon nitride film to selectively provide an opening part by a photolithography method. Next, the silicon nitride film 104 and the silicon dioxide film 103 are etched by dry etching. By changing the composition ratio and pressure of gas in this dry etching, the etching speed of the silicon nitride film is controlled to about two to eight times that of the silicon dioxide film.
