Abstract
After a silicon oxide film is formed on a semiconductor wafer, pattern formation alignment marks are provided in the chip formation areas and through-holes for stacking are formed in each chip formation area using an alignment mark as reference in order to improve accuracy in vertically stacking semiconductor chips. Next, after forming elements, wiring and electrode parts on the semiconductor wafer, the semiconductor wafer is cut along the chip formation area and is divided into semiconductor chips. Then, the divided semiconductor chips, as many as needed, are stacked by matching the through-holes.
