    Abstract: To improve a semiconductor device having a nonvolatile memory. A first MISFET, a second MISFET, and a memory cell are formed, and a stopper film made of a silicon oxide film is formed thereover. Then, over the stopper film, a stress application film made of a silicon nitride film is formed, and the stress application film over the second MISFET and the memory cell is removed. Thereafter, heat treatment is performed to apply a stress to the first MISFET. Thus, a SMT is not applied to each of elements, but is applied selectively. This can reduce the degree of degradation of the second MISFET due to H (hydrogen) in the silicon nitride film forming the stress application film. This can also reduce the degree of degradation of the characteristics of the memory cell due to the H (hydrogen) in the silicon nitride film forming the stress application film.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device with a nonvolatile memory is provided which has improved characteristics. The semiconductor device includes a control gate electrode, a memory gate electrode disposed adjacent to the control gate electrode, a first insulating film, and a second insulating film including therein a charge storing portion. Among these components, the memory gate electrode is formed of a silicon film including a first silicon region positioned over the second insulating film, and a second silicon region positioned above the first silicon region. The second silicon region contains p-type impurities, and the concentration of p-type impurities of the first silicon region is lower than that of the p-type impurities of the second silicon region.

    Abstract: An improvement is achieved in the performance of semiconductor device including a nonvolatile memory. In a split-gate nonvolatile memory, between a memory gate electrode and a p-type well and between a control gate electrode and the memory gate electrode, an insulating film is formed. Of the insulating film, the portion between the lower surface of the memory gate electrode and the upper surface of a semiconductor substrate has silicon oxide films, and a silicon nitride film interposed between the silicon oxide films. Of the insulating film, the portion between a side surface of the control gate electrode and a side surface of the memory gate electrode is formed of a silicon oxide film, and does not have the silicon nitride film.
