Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, the method including forming a structure on a substrate, the structure including a metal pattern, at least a portion of the metal pattern being exposed; forming a preliminary buffer oxide layer to cover the structure, a metal oxide layer being formed at the exposed portion of the metal pattern; and deoxidizing the metal oxide layer so that the preliminary buffer oxide layer is transformed into a buffer oxide layer.
