Abstract

An MIS-type semiconductor device comprises PSD structure and LDD structure. The LDD structure comprises high concentration impurity regions formed by thermally diffusing impurities which have been contained in source/drain electrode conductive layers made of polysilicon onto a semiconductor substrate, and low concentration impurity regions formed through ion implantation using resist patterned on channel regions and the source/drain electrode conductive layers as mask. A gate electrode is formed, after formation of the low concentration impurity regions, to cover them and have its edges overlap the source/drain electrode conductive layers. The LDD structure suppresses the short channel effects which might be caused in the MIS-type semiconductor device and thus enables channels length to be miniaturized while the PSD structure enables also miniaturization of source/drain structure.
