摘要:
A first insulation film (silicon dioxide film) and a second insulation film (aluminum oxide film) are laminated on a surface of a silicon substrate in this order to form a gate insulation film. At least one element (aluminum) of elements, which constitutes the second insulation film but is different from elements commonly contained in the whole area of the first insulation film, is caused to be contained in a part of the first insulation film, whereby a charge trapping site region is formed in the first insulation film.

One object of the present invention is to suppress a threshold voltage of at least an n-channel MISFET using a nitride of a high melting point metal at it's gate electrode. In order to achieve the object, a gate electrode 109 of a p-channel MISFET is constituted of a titanium nitride film 106 and a tungsten film 107 formed on the film 106 and a gate electrode 110a of an n-channel MISFET is constituted of a titanium nitride film 106a and a tungsten film 107 formed on the film 106a. The titanium nitride film 106a is formed by nitrogen ion implantation in the titanium nitride film 106 to decrease the work function.
