ABSTRACT:
At least a laminate of a gate insulating film6and a gate electrode7and an active region13are formed on a silicon substrate1, and an underlying interlayer insulating film10is further formed. Then, a conductor11aconnected to the gate electrode7, and a conductor11bthat is a dummy conductor and is connected to the active region13are formed simultaneously on the underlying interlayer insulating film10. Thereafter, an interlayer insulating film12is formed on the underlying interlayer insulating film10by a plasma process. At this time, charging current from a plasma14is emitted through the conductor11b, which is a dummy conductor.
