Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device including the steps of: forming an insulating film on a silicon substrate; forming a resist pattern on the insulating film; etching the insulating film by using the resist pattern as an etching mask to expose a surface of the silicon substrate; and ashing the resist pattern and etching a surface layer at the exposed surface of the silicon substrate at the same time. The ashing/etching step may be performed first at a high temperature at or above 40.degree. C. and then at a lower temperature.
