Abstract

Provided is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. The method includes forming a sacrificial film as part of a process of forming a semiconductor device. The sacrificial film has a relatively high etch selectivity with respect to other materials of the semiconductor device so as to reduce loss of etching masks and improve the quality of a components (e.g., buried contacts) of the semiconductor device.
