Abstract

Silicide films having a high heat-resistance are formed on a gate electrode, simultaneously with silicide films having good junction leakage characteristics on diffusion layers. A transistor includes a polycrystalline silicon gate electrode, a gate insulating film, a diffusion layer, and sidewalls on a silicon substrate isolated by an element isolation oxide film. A first silicide film and a second silicide film are formed on the gate electrode and on the diffusion layer, respectively. The first silicide film is thicker than the second silicide film.
