Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes the steps of forming a first columnar semiconductor layer on a substrate forming a first flat semiconductor layer forming a first semiconductor layer of a second conductive type, and forming a first insulating film. The method further includes the steps of forming a gate insulating film and a gate electrode, forming a second semiconductor layer of the second conductive type, forming a semiconductor layer of a first conductive type and forming a metal-semiconductor compound. The first insulating film has a thickness larger than that of the gate insulating film formed around the first columnar silicon layer.
