A semiconductor manufacturing apparatus which continuously executes oxidation and CVD in a multiprocess apparatus includes an internal apparatus controller which selects the type of process and supplies a start signal and stop signal for the process to the multiprocess apparatus, and a process controller which calculates the process state for each process on the basis of the internal information of the apparatus. Upon receiving the stop signal from the controller, the controller sends the stop signal to the multiprocess apparatus to stop the current process by the multiprocess apparatus and switches to the next process.

A diffused layer serves as a source and a drain. It is formed comprised of a deep first diffused layer and a shallow second diffused layer positioned between the first diffused layer and the channel region. In the second diffused region, a distribution in a depth direction of carriers has a profile in which the concentration is more than 5.times.10.sup.18 cm.sup.-3 at the peak and is in correspondence with a carrier concentration of the semiconductor substrate at a depth less than 0.04 .mu.m. Since the second diffused layer has a high concentration, the short-channel effect can be suppressed. As the second diffused region, a solid phase diffusion source such as an impurity doped silicate glass is used.
