Abstract
A method for producing a T-shaped gate electrode of a semiconductor device including forming an insulating film on a semiconductor substrate, etching away a prescribed region of the insulating film, depositing a metal film having a prescribed thickness, forming a first photoresist film and removing the photoresist film except where the insulating film has been removed, forming a second photoresist film, patterning the second photoresist film to expose the metal film along a sidewall of the insulating film, etching away a portion of the metal film using the first and second photoresist films as a mask, depositing a gate metal and removing the first and second photoresist films and overlying gate metal by lift-off, and etching away the metal films remaining on the semiconductor substrate and the insulating film. Thereby, a T-shaped gate electrode with shortened length is formed.
