The nitride layer pattern is removed, and an upper oxide layer pattern is formed to cover a predetermined portion of the source region and the gate conductive layer. A body contact region of the second conductivity type is formed using the upper oxide layer pattern as a mask. A source electrode is formed to be electrically connected to the body contact region, and a drain electrode is formed to be electrically connected to the semiconductor substrate.
