Abstract

According to the present invention, there is provided a method of manufacturing a Schottky barrier semiconductor device with lesser variation of barrier height .phi.B which may stably be adjusted in a wide range. A Schottky barrier is formed by combination of an electrode layer, a Ti thin layer and Al layer. The Ti thin oxide layer between the Ti thin and Al layers may prevent variation of barrier height .phi.B during heat treatment. By controlling vacuum.
