Method for producing semiconductor device and semiconductor device

A semiconductor device comprising:

• a fin-shaped silicon layer formed on a silicon substrate;
• a first insulating film formed around the fin-shaped silicon layer;
• a pillar-shaped silicon layer formed on the fin-shaped silicon layer, the width of the pillar-shaped silicon layer being equal to the width of the fin-shaped silicon layer;
• a diffusion layer formed in an upper portion of the fin-shaped silicon layer and in a lower portion of the pillar-shaped silicon layer;
• a diffusion layer formed in an upper portion of the pillar-shaped silicon layer;
• a silicide formed in an upper portion of the diffusion layer in the upper portion of the fin-shaped silicon layer;
• a gate insulating film formed around the pillar-shaped silicon layer;
• a metal gate electrode formed around the gate insulating film;
• a metal gate line extending in a direction perpendicular to the fin-shaped silicon layer and being connected to the metal gate electrode;
• a metal gate pad connected to the metal gate line, the width of the metal gate electrode and the width of the metal gate pad being larger than the width of the metal gate line;
• and
• a contact formed on the diffusion layer formed in the upper portion of the pillar-shaped silicon layer,
• wherein the diffusion layer formed in the upper portion of the pillar-shaped silicon layer is directly connected to the contact.
