Abstract

A protection film is formed on a silicon oxide film 6 formed on the surface of a semiconductor substrate, a silicon oxide film is removed from a region where a thin gate-insulating film is to be formed by using, as a mask, a photoresist pattern that covers a region where a thick gate-insulating film is to be formed, and, then, the photoresist pattern is removed followed by washing. Then, the semiconductor substrate is heat-oxidized or a film is deposited thereon to form gate-insulating films having different thicknesses.
