ABSTRACT:
First, in a first step, a gate electrode is formed over a silicon substrate, with a gate insulation film therebetween. Next, in a second step, etching with the gate electrode as a mask is conducted so as to dig down a surface layer of the silicon substrate. Subsequently, in a third step, a first layer including an SiGe layer is epitaxially grown on the dug-down surface of the silicon substrate. Next, in a fourth step, a second layer including an SiGe layer lower than the first layer in Ge concentration or including an Si layer is formed on the first layer. Thereafter, in a fifth step, at least the surface side of the second layer is silicided, to form a silicide layer.
