Abstract:
To enhance the performance of a semiconductor device. In a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, a metal film is formed over a semiconductor substrate having an insulating film formed on a surface thereof, and then the metal film is removed in a memory cell region, whereas, in a part of a peripheral circuit region, the metal film is left. Next, a silicon film is formed over the semiconductor substrate, then the silicon film is patterned in the memory cell region, and, in the peripheral circuit region, the silicon film is left so that an outer peripheral portion of the remaining metal film is covered with the silicon film. Subsequently, in the peripheral circuit region, the silicon film, the metal film, and the insulating film are patterned for forming an insulating film portion formed of the insulating film, a metal film portion formed of the metal film, and a conductive film portion formed of the silicon film.

Abstract:
The performance of a semiconductor device is improved by preventing 1/f noise from being generated in a peripheral transistor, in the case where the occupation area of photodiodes, which are included in each of a plurality of pixels that form an image pickup device, is expanded. In the semiconductor device, the gate electrode of an amplification transistor is formed by both a gate electrode part over an active region and a large width part that covers the boundary between the active region and an element isolation region and the active region near the boundary and that. has a gate length larger than that of the gate electrode part.
