1. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising:
forming a trench in a substrate;
disposing a lower gate electrode in the trench;
disposing a first dielectric layer on the lower gate electrode in the trench;
partially removing the first dielectric layer to expose a portion of the lower gate electrode, wherein a remained first dielectric layer covers another portion of the lower gate electrode;
disposing a first barrier layer on the portion of the lower gate electrode; and
forming a coplanar surface of the first barrier layer and the first dielectric layer.
