A semiconductor device comprises: a p-type semiconductor substrate (1); an insulating film (3); a gate electrode (2) formed on the substrate via the insulating film; and an n-type source/drain region (5) formed on both sides of a channel forming region (4) located under the gate electrode (2) formed on the substrate (1). In particular, the thickness (TOX) of the insulating film (3) is determined to be less than 2.5 nm at conversion rate of silicon oxide film (silicon oxide equivalent thickness); a gate length (Lg) of the gate electrode (2) is determined to be equal to or less than 0.3 μm; and further a voltage applied to the gate electrode (2) and the drain region (6) is determined to be 1.5 V or less. Therefore, in the MOSFET having the tunneling gate oxide film (3), the reliability of the transistor under the hot carrier stress can be improved, and the gate leakage current can be reduced markedly, so that the transistor characteristics can be improved markedly.

A MOS type semiconductor device has a gate whose length is 170 nm (0.17 .mu.m) or less, a junction depth of source and drain diffusion layers in the vicinity of a channel is 22 nm or less, and a concentration of impurities at the surface in the source and drain diffusion layers is made to 10.sup.20 cm.sup.-3 or more. Such structure is obtained using solid phase diffusion using heat range from 950.degree. C. to 1050.degree. C. and/or narrowing gate width by ashing or etching. The other MOS type semiconductor device is characterized in that the relationship between the junction depth x.sub.j �nm! in the source and drain diffusion layer regions and the effective channel length L.sub.eff �nm! is determined by L.sub.eff >0.69 x.sub.j -6.17.

It is determined that indoor condensation of hydrogen peroxide vapor is to occur, if there is a solution with which both (Equation 1): PT·y1=P01·x1·γ1 and (Equation 2): PT·y2=P02·x2·γ2 hold. With this, it is possible to accurately determine whether indoor condensation of hydrogen peroxide vapor is to occur or not in decontamination.
