Abstract

Disclosed is a semiconductor device having an N-type MIS transistor formed in a first region and a P-type MIS transistor formed in a second region, wherein, the N-type MIS transistor includes a first gate insulating film formed on at least the bottom of a first concave portion formed in the first region and a first gate electrode formed on the first gate insulating film, the P-type MIS transistor includes a second gate insulating film formed on at least the bottom of a second concave portion formed in the second region and a second gate electrode formed on the second gate insulating film, each of the first and second gate electrodes includes at least one metal-containing film, and at least one of the first and second gate electrodes is of a laminate structure including a plurality of the metal-containing films, and the work function of the metal-containing film constituting at least a part of the first gate electrode and in contact with the first gate insulating film is smaller than the work function of the metal-containing film constituting at least a part of the second gate electrode and in contact with the second gate insulating film.
