Abstract

A semiconductor device manufacturing method includes a step of forming a hole reaching a first insulating layer over a first conductive member; a step of forming a trench reaching a second insulating layer and in communication with the hole; a step of forming an opening exposing the first conductive member in the hole; and a step of forming a second conductive member connected to the first conductive member by embedding a conductive material in the opening, the hole, and the trench. The trench is formed under an etching condition such that the etching rate with respect to the second insulating layer is lower than the etching rate with respect to the third insulating layer.
