Abstract

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprises the steps of: depositing a first insulating film on a semiconductor substrate, and then, applying a photo resist to the first insulating film to align and develop the photo resist to form a first photo resist pattern; side-etching the first insulating film, by a predetermined size from an end portion of the first photo resist pattern, using the first photo resist pattern as a mask; depositing a second insulating film on the entire surface of the semiconductor substrate to form a gap above the semiconductor substrate between the first and second insulating films; removing the first photo resist pattern; and forming a gate electrode.
