    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. A photolithographic coating, including a first film, a photolithographic film, and a second film, is formed on the to-be-connected structure. Refractive indexes of the first film and the second film are smaller than 1. The photolithographic coating is exposed to a light having a first wavelength, to image the to-be-connected structure to a first region of the photolithographic film. The photolithographic coating is exposed to a light having a second wavelength through a mask, to image the mask to a second region of the photolithographic film. A region in which the first region and the second region overlap serves as a connection region corresponding to the to-be-connected structure, and thereby self-alignment between a layer of the to-be-connected structure and a layer where a contact hole is arranged is implemented.

    Abstract: A transistor and a manufacturing method. The transistor includes a semiconductor base substrate, an active structure, a dielectric structure, and a gate stack structure. The active structure is formed on the semiconductor base substrate. The active structure includes a source region, a drain region, and a channel region located between the source region and the drain region. The channel region includes at least two nanostructures stacked in a thickness direction of the semiconductor base substrate. In the channel region, a bottom nanostructure has a greater width than other nanostructures. The dielectric structure is formed between the semiconductor base substrate and the active structure. The dielectric structure is in contact with the bottom nanostructure. The gate stack structure is formed on a surface of the bottom nanostructure not in contact with the dielectric structure, and the gate stack surrounds a periphery of the other nanostructures.
