FIG. 1 shows a cross-sectional view of an example of a conventional method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. An insulating film 2 such as an oxide film is formed on the semiconductor substrate 1 (FIG. 1(a)'). Next, a photoresist 3 is applied to the entire surface, and then selectively removed by photolithography.
(in the figure)), then remove all parts of the insulating film 2 that are not covered with the photoresist 3 using an etching solution (Figure 1 (C)), and then remove the photoresist 3 (Figure 1 (d)). )) However, at this time, the angle θ1 of the end portion 4a of the insulating film 2
is close to a right angle, so when a metal electrode such as a ram is subsequently formed on the aluminum, disconnection is likely to occur at the end 4a of the insulating film 2, resulting in a problem with reliability.
