Conventional methods to solve this problem include round etching in which the upper part of the contact hole is removed by isotropic etching when forming the contact hole, and measures such as forming a metal sidewall in the contact hole. However, in either method, the conductive material in the contact hole is formed simultaneously with the deposition of the conductive film on the top of the insulating layer, so step coverage (embedding) of the conductive material such as aluminum silicon alloy is required. Since the limit of miniaturization is influenced by the limit of , it is insufficient to consider the increase in aspect ratio due to future miniaturization.

[0012] As a result, even if the aspect ratio of the contact hole increases due to miniaturization, there is no increase in contact resistance due to disconnection or thinning of the film, and conventional alloy deposition techniques such as those for aluminum-silicon alloys can be used. By using this method, it is possible not only to achieve conductive connection within the contact hole, but also to flatten the surface of semiconductor devices that have a large step on the surface, such as between a gate polysilicon and a silicon substrate. Therefore, the yield of semiconductor devices can be increased.
