In an SOI-MISFET that operates with low power consumption at a high speed, an element area is reduced. While a diffusion layer region of an N-conductivity type MISFET region of the SOI type MISFET and a diffusion layer region of a P-conductivity type MISFET region of the SOI type MISFET are formed as a common region, well diffusion layers that apply substrate potentials to the N-conductivity type MISFET region and the P-conductivity type MISFET region are separated from each other by an STI layer. The diffusion layer regions that are located in the N- and P-conductivity type MISFET regions) and serve as an output portion of a CMISFET are formed as a common region and directly connected by silicified metal so that the element area is reduced.

The invention aims at increasing an effect of a strain applying technique for enhancing transistor performance in a fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FDSOI) type transistor having a thin buried oxide (BOX) film. In an FDSOI type transistor having a very thin SOI structure (6), a stress generating region is formed on a back face side (5) of a very thin BOX layer (4) in order to apply strains to portions in which channels are intended to be formed. Desired portions on a back face side of the BOX layer (4) are amorphized by performing ion implantation, and are then recrystallized by performing a heat treatment in a state where a stress applying film (3) is formed, thereby transferring stresses from the stress applying film (3) to the portions in which the channels are intended to be formed. Thus, the stress generating region is formed.

Provided is a technology capable of suppressing a reduction in electron mobility in a channel region formed in a strained silicon layer. A p type strained silicon layer is formed over a p type silicon-germanium layer formed over a semiconductor substrate. The p type strained layer has a thickness adjusted to be thicker than the critical film thickness at which no misfit dislocation occurs. Accordingly, misfit dislocations occur in the vicinity of the interface between the p type strained silicon layer and p type silicon-germanium layer. At a position which is below the end of a gate electrode and at which misfit dislocations occur, the impurity concentration of the n type strained silicon layer and n type silicon-germanium layer is 1×1019 cm−3 or less.
