A manufacturing method for a variable resistive element according to which a stable switching operation can be achieved with excellent reproducibility is provided. A conductive thin film is deposited on a semiconductor substrate and patterned to a predetermined form, and after that, a first interlayer insulating film is deposited. An opening is then created in a predetermined location on the first interlayer insulating film in such a manner that the upper surface of the conductive thin film is exposed and the thickness of the conductive thin film formed at the bottom of this opening is reduced through processing, and after that, an oxidation process is carried out on the periphery of the exposed conductive thin film. As a result, a variable resistor film is formed in the peripheral region of the opening, and this variable resistor film divides the conductive thin film into a first electrode and a second electrode.

An insulating film 16, made of BPSG, etc., is formed on a substrate 10 by CVD, covering an uneven surface, and then is subjected to thermal treatment to fluidize the film and to reduce the step. Hydrogen silsesquioxane resin solution is coated on the film 16 by spin coating, subjected to the first annealing at a relatively low temperature, and then to the second annealing at relatively high temperature, to form a glass film 18. The lamination of the films 16 and 18 is etched back under the dry etching conditions where the etch rates of the films 16 and 18 become approximately equal, until film 18 is completely removed, to planarize the film 16. A wiring is formed on the planarized surface. The surface of the insulating film serving as an underlying layer of a wiring can be planarized uniformly and with good reproducibility.

A first opening and a second opening are formed at the same time over a first metal wiring and a second metal wiring, respectively which are provided as the same layer on a substrate on which a transistor for selecting a memory cell is formed. Then, a variable resistor and an upper electrode are deposited on a whole surface so as to completely fill the first opening with the upper electrode but not to completely fill the second opening with it. Thereafter, a variable resistive element is formed in the first opening and a via hole to connect to the third metal wiring (bit line), in the second opening, at the same time, by performing back-etching until a surface of the second metal wiring is exposed at a bottom of the second opening.
