Abstract

According to one embodiment, a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a depression in an upper portion of a semiconductor substrate, placing a sacrificial material in the depression, forming a plurality of fins extending in one direction and arranged periodically by selectively removing the semiconductor substrate and the sacrificial material, forming a device isolation insulating film in a lower portion of space between the fins, removing the sacrificial material, forming a gate insulating film on an exposed surface of the fin, and forming a gate electrode. The gate electrode extends in a direction crossing the one direction so as to straddle the fin on the device isolation insulating film.
