Abstract
A method for manufacturing a transistor of a semiconductor device having a gate electrode smaller than the critical dimensions of a mask for a gate electrode by etching a polysilicon film for a gate electrode using an isotropic etching process and an anisotropic etching process utilizing a mask layer by forming the mask layer on the top of the polysilicon film for a gate electrode. This allows forming a gate electrode smaller than the critical dimensions by utilizing the prior art exposing apparatus; therefore, production costs for manufacturing the semiconductor can be reduced, and additionally, the manufacture of a highly integrated semiconductor device can be simplified by forming a gate electrode smaller than the critical dimensions.
