Abstract
A groove is formed on a semiconductor substrate. A mask material layer is so formed on the surface of the semiconductor substrate as to open a groove region. With the mask material layer used as a mask, a semiconductor layer is selectively formed on the semiconductor substrate exposed with the inner wall surface of the groove. Then, the mask material layer is removed. An insulating film is formed on the semiconductor layer formed on the inner wall surface of the groove and the surface of the semiconductor substrate. The groove is buried with a conductor.
