Abstract

A first insulating film with a dielectric constant lower than that of a silicon oxide film is formed on a semiconductor substrate. Next, a metal film or a second insulating film, which has degrees of moisture absorption and deformation in an oxygen plasma process and exposure to a resist releasing solution equal to or less than those of a silicon oxide film, is formed on the first insulating film. Then, the metal film or the second insulating film is patterned to a prescribed pattern. An opening is formed in the first insulating film using the metal film or the second insulating film as a mask.
