Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a mask layer including aluminum or an aluminum compound on a layer to be etched comprising at least one first metal selected from tungsten, tantalum, zirconium, hafnium, molybdenum, niobium, ruthenium, osmium, rhenium, and iridium. The method of manufacturing a semiconductor device further includes patterning the mask layer, and etching the layer to be etched by using the patterned mask layer to form a hole or a groove in the layer to be etched.
