Abstract

Provided is a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device which comprises forming, all over the surface of a substrate below the channel region of a MISFET, a p type impurity layer having a first peak in impurity concentration distribution and another p type impurity layer having a second peak in impurity concentration distribution, each layer having a function of preventing punch-through. Compared with a device having a punch through stopper layer of a pocket structure, the device of the present invention is suppressed in fluctuations in the threshold voltage. Moreover, with a relative increase in the controllable width of a depletion layer, a sub-threshold swing becomes small, thereby making it possible to prevent lowering of the threshold voltage and to improve a switching rate of the MISFET.
