Abstract
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of forming a first resist layer, an intermediate layer and a second resist layer sequentially on a substrate; forming an aperture by removing a portion of the second resist layer where a T-shaped gate is to be later formed; over-etching a portion of the intermediate layer opposed to the aperture thereby forming in the intermediate layer an aperture larger than the first-mentioned aperture; and forming, in the first resist layer, an aperture which is smaller than the aperture in the second resist layer which is positioned inside thereof. Due to the combination of such successive steps, the lift-off process required to form a desires T-shaped gate can be substantially improved.
