Abstract

A method of manufacturing a MOS field effect transistor comprises forming on a semiconductor substrate a first epitaxial growth layer having an impurity doping concentration lower than that of the semiconductor substrate, forming on the first epitaxial growth layer a second epitaxial growth layer having an impurity concentration higher than that of the first epitaxial growth layer and having a thickness equal to or less than a diffusion depth of a source and a drain region, and forming on the second eptiaxial growth layer a third epitaxial growth layer having an impurity concentration lower than that of the second epitaxial growth layer and having a thickness equal to or less than that of a depletion layer at a channel region.
