Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming desired semiconductor elements in a major surface region of a semiconductor substrate, and ion-implanting a selected element into the semiconductor substrate from the major surface of the substrate to form an ion-implanted layer by the implanted element. A heat treatment is performed to the ion-implanted substrate, causing the ion-implanted layer to getter contaminant heavy metals.
