In order to provide a semiconductor integrated circuit device such as a high-performance semiconductor integrated circuit device capable of reducing a soft error developed in each memory cell of a SRAM, the surface of a wiring of a cross-connecting portion, of a SRAM memory cell having a pair of n-channel type MISFETs whose gate electrodes and drains are respectively cross-connected, is formed in a shape that protrudes from the surface of a silicon oxide film. A silicon nitride film used as a capacitive insulating film, and an upper electrode are formed on the wiring. A capacitance can be formed of the wiring, the silicon nitride film and the upper electrode.

A low threshold voltage NMIS area and a high threshold voltage PMIS area are set by a photoresist mask also used for well formation. Using a photoresist mask with openings for the NMIS and PMIS, the NMIS and PMIS areas are set by one ion implantation step. After gate oxidation, ion implantation is conducted through an amorphous silicon film onto wells, channels, and gate electrodes. A plurality of CMIS threshold voltages can be set and the gate electrodes of both polarities can be formed in a reduced number of steps using photoresist. This solves the problem in which photomasks are required as many as there are ion implantation types for wells, channel stoppers, gate electrodes, and threshold voltage control and hence the number of manufacturing steps and the production cost are increased.

A gate electrode of each MISFET is formed on a substrate in an active region whose periphery is defined by an element isolation trench, and crosses the active region so as to extend from one end thereof to the other end thereof. The gate electrode has a gate length in a boundary region defined between the active region and the element isolation trench which is greater than a gate length in a central portion of the active region. The gate electrode is configured in an H-type flat pattern. Further, the gate electrode covers the whole of one side extending along a gate-length direction, of the boundary region defined between the active region L and the element isolation trench, and parts of two sides thereof extending along a gate-width direction. The MISFETs are formed in electrically separated wells and are connected in series to constitute part of a reference voltage generating circuit.

Manufacturing a semiconductor device avoiding an increase of transistor leak current or reduction of the withstanding voltage characteristics is by at least one of: The pad oxide film is removed along the substrate surface from the upper edge of the groove over a distance ranging from 5 to 40 nm: The exposed surface of the semiconductor substrate undergoes removal by isotropic etching within 20 nm; and oxidizing a groove portion formed in a semiconductor substrate in an oxidation environment with a gas ratio of hydrogen (H2) to oxygen (O2) being less than or equal to 0.5, an increase of the curvature radius beyond 3nm is achieved without associating the risk of creation of any level difference on the substrate surface at or near the upper groove edge portions in a groove separation structure. This eliminates either an increase of transistor leak current or reduction of the withstanding voltage characteristics thereof otherwise occurring due to local electric field concentration near or around the terminate ends of a gate electrode film which in turn leads to an ability to improve electrical reliability of transistors used.
