This invention relates to a method for forming the salicide, more particularly, to the method for forming the salicide in the partial region. The present invention uses a nitride layer to be the mask layer to form the salicide in the partial region of the logic circuit. The silicide is formed on the gate and is not formed in the diffusion region, which are in the cell array region. The silicide is formed on the gate and in the diffusion region, which are in the periphery region. The present invention method can make the semiconductor device obtain lower resistance and decrease the leakage defects.
