Abstract

Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device which includes MOSFETs of the two-channel conductivity types of P- and N-channel types on a single semiconductor substrate. According to the present invention, a first mask and a second mask are used. The first mask covers that surface part of the semiconductor substrate in which the P-channel type MOSFET is to be formed, and it serves as a mask when an N-type impurity is introduced into the semiconductor substrate. The first mask has a property and etching rate different from those of a film formed by the thermal oxidation of the semiconductor substrate surface. The second mask covers that surface part of the semiconductor substrate which has been formed with the N-channel type MOSFET, and it serves as a mask when a P-type impurity is introduced into the semiconductor substrate. The second mask is used as an inter-layer insulator film.
