| 1. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising:
forming a semiconductor layer, a gate insulating film, and a gate electrode over a substrate;
forming an interlayer insulating film over the semiconductor layer, the gate insulating film, and the gate electrode;
forming a conductive metal film over the interlayer insulating film; and
forming a contact hole in the conductive metal film by dry etching and in the interlayer insulating film by dry etching.
