A method for producing a semiconductor device includes a first step of forming a first insulating film around the fin-shaped semiconductor layer; a second step of forming a pillar-shaped semiconductor layer and a first dummy gate formed of a first polysilicon; a third step of forming a second dummy gate on sidewalls of the first dummy gate and the pillar-shaped semiconductor layer; a fourth step of forming a fifth insulating film left as a sidewall around the second dummy gate, forming a second diffusion layer in an upper portion of the fin-shaped semiconductor layer and a lower portion of the pillar-shaped semiconductor layer, and forming a metal-semiconductor compound on the second diffusion layer; a fifth step of forming a gate electrode and a gate line; and a sixth step of depositing a second gate insulating film around the pillar-shaped semiconductor layer and on the gate electrode and the gate line, removing a portion of the second gate insulating film on the gate line, depositing a second metal, etching back the second metal, removing the second gate insulating film on the pillar-shaped semiconductor layer, depositing a third metal, and etching a portion of the third metal and a portion of the second metal to form a first contact in which the second metal surrounds a sidewall of an upper portion of the pillar-shaped semiconductor layer, a second contact that connects an upper portion of the first contact and an upper portion of the pillar-shaped semiconductor layer, and a third contact made of the second metal and the third metal and formed on the gate line.
