Abstract

A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device having a trench is provided to form, at a corner portion of the trench, an oxide film which is greater in thickness and smaller in stress than at other portions. When the trench formed in the semiconductor substrate is oxidized, it is oxidized in an oxygen environment containing dichloroethylene at a predetermined weight percent to allow the formation of an oxide film having a greater thickness at the corner portion of the trench than thickness at other portions, whereby the semiconductor device improving dielectric breakdown characteristics can be obtained.
