Abstract

The present invention provides the method of manufacturing a dual-gate CMOS device which has high transconductance and improved breakdown voltage, in which depletion in the interface between a gate oxide and a gate electrode is prevented without the increase of the steps of process. A gate oxide film (5) formed on a semiconductor substrate (1) is washed with an aqueous solution, or exposed to a gas atomosphere containing hydrogen, and an amorphous silicon film (3) is formed on the whole surface of the gate oxide film (5). The amorphous silicon film (3) is then crystallized. Alternatively, after a silicon oxide film (53) or a silicon nitrided film is formed on the amorphous silicon film (3), the amorhpous silicon film (3) is crystallized.
