ABSTRACT:
In manufacturing a semiconductor device, a refractory metal silicide layer having a first phase structure is formed. In this case, the refractory metal silicide layer having the first phase structure may be formed during performing a deposition operation of a refractory metal, in a state in which a semiconductor substrate is heated. Instead, a refractory metal film may be first deposited in a vacuum state, and then a semiconductor substrate may be heated in the vacuum state to change the refractory metal film into said refractory metal silicide layer having a first phase structure. After the refractory metal silicide layer having the first phase structure is formed, heat treatment is performed to change said refractory metal silicide layer having said first phase structure into a refractory metal silicide layer having a second phase structure.
