Abstract

See full text

A miniaturized transistor with less variation and highly stable electrical characteristics is provided. Further, high performance and high reliability of a semiconductor device including the transistor are achieved. A semiconductor and a conductor are formed over a substrate, a sacrificial layer is formed over the conductor, and an insulator is formed to cover the sacrificial layer. After that, a top surface of the insulator is removed to expose a top surface of the sacrificial layer. The sacrificial layer and a region of the conductor overlapping with the sacrificial layer are removed, whereby a source region, a drain region, and an opening are formed. Next, a gate insulator and a gate electrode are formed in the opening.
