Abstract

See full text

There is provided a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. In the method, a gate insulation layer including a high-k dielectric material is formed on a substrate. An etch stop layer is formed on the gate insulation layer. A metal layer is formed on the etch stop layer. A hard mask including amorphous silicon is formed on the metal layer. The metal layer is patterned using the hard mask as an etching mask to form a metal layer pattern.
