Abstract

According to one embodiment, a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device is disclosed. The method can include forming a trench and exposing a portion of a first film at a bottom portion of the trench by removing a portion of a second film by performing dry etching using a gas including a first element. The second film is provided on the first film. The first film includes Alx1Ga1-x1N (0≤x1<1). The second film includes Alx2Ga1-x2N (0<x2<1 and x1<x2). The method can include performing heat treatment while causing the portion being exposed of the first film to contact an atmosphere including NH3, forming an insulating film on the portion of the first film after the heat treatment, and forming an electrode on the insulating film.
