    Abstract: A technique is provided which makes it possible to achieve both of a reduction in contact resistance in a memory device and a reduction in contact resistance in a logic device even when oxidation is performed during formation of dielectric films of capacitors. Conductive barrier layers (82) are provided in the top ends of contact plugs (83b) electrically connected to ones of source/drain regions (59). Lower electrodes (70) of capacitors (73) are formed in contact with the conductive barrier layers (82) of the contact plugs (83b) and then dielectric films (71) and upper electrodes (72) of the capacitors (73) are sequentially formed. In the logic region, contact plugs (25) are formed in an upper layer so that they are in contact respectively with contact plugs (33) electrically connected to source/drain regions (9).

The first power domains include second power domains SPD11 to SPD42 including logic blocks, control circuit blocks SCB1 to SCB4, and thin-film power switches SWN11 to SWN42 that are connected to the thick-film power switches via virtual ground lines VSSM1 to VSSM4, and formed by thin-film power transistors manufactured in a process common to the logic blocks. In this way, power switches having different thickness of gate insulating films from one another are vertically stacked so as to be in a hierarchical structure, and each power switch is individually controlled by a power switch controller and a control circuit block correspondingly to each mode.

    Abstract: A technology is provided where a high performance Schottky-barrier diode and other semiconductor elements can be formed in the same chip controlling the increase in the number of steps. After a silicon oxide film is deposited over a substrate where an n-channel type MISFET is formed and the silicon oxide film over a gate electrode and n+ type semiconductor region is selectively removed, a Co film is deposited over the substrate and a CoSi2 layer is formed over the n+ type semiconductor region and the gate electrode by applying a heat treatment to the substrate. After a silicon nitride film is deposited over the substrate and an aperture reaching the substrate is formed by removing the silicon nitride film and the silicon oxide film at the anode formation part of the Schottky barrier diode, a Ti film is deposited over the substrate including the inside of the aperture, and a TiSi2 layer which becomes an anode electrode of the Schottky-barrier diode is formed at the bottom of the aperture by applying a heat treatment to the substrate.
