Abstract
An object is to avoid an increase in contact resistance of an ohmic electrode by etching in a semiconductor device. There is provided a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. The method of manufacturing comprises forming a semiconductor layer; forming an ohmic electrode by stacking a plurality of metal layers, on the semiconductor layer; forming another metal layer that is mainly made of another metal different from a material of an outermost layer among the plurality of metal layers, on the ohmic electrode; removing the another metal layer from top of the ohmic electrode by etching; and processing the ohmic electrode by heat treatment, subsequent to the etching.
