ABSTRACT:
Dummy gate patterns111, 112are formed on a silicon active layer103of an SOI substrate, and thereafter, these dummy gate patterns111, 112are removed to form gate grooves130, 132.A threshold voltage of each transistor is adjusted by etching a silicon active layer103in any one of these gate, grooves130, 132to reduce a thickness of a portion constituting a channel region. This enables the enhancement of freedom degree and so on in circuit designing according to conditions.
