Abstract
A method of forming a semiconductor device may include, but is not limited to, the following processes. A multi-layered structure is prepared over a semiconductor substrate. The multi-layered structure may include, but is not limited to, first and second patterns of a first insulating film, a second insulating film covering the first pattern of the first insulating film, and a first conductive film covering the second pattern of the first insulating film. The second insulating film and the first conductive film are polished under conditions that the first and second insulating films are greater in polishing rate than the first conductive film, to expose the first and second patterns of the first insulating film.
