Abstract

A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device is provided with an inspecting of a semiconductor substrate by an inspection method, the method including heating the semiconductor substrate, measuring first and second characteristics. The measuring of a first characteristic is performed by bringing a plurality of probes into contact with the heated semiconductor substrate and making a first electric current flow in the semiconductor substrate. The measuring of a second characteristic is performed, after the measuring of the first characteristic, by bringing a plurality of probes into contact with the heated semiconductor substrate and making a second electric current flow in the semiconductor substrate. A number of the plurality of probes used in the measuring of the second characteristic is larger than a number of the plurality of probes used in the measuring of the first characteristic. The second electric current is larger than the first electric current.
