ABSTRACT:
Single crystal silicon is grown in a [100] direction to make a bulk. Next, a silicon substrate with a normal of a surface extending in an inclined direction from a [100] direction is cut from the bulk. At this time, when an angle (off-angle) of inclination of the normal is decomposed into a component in a [001] direction and a component in a [010] direction, the component in the [001] direction is made within ±0.2 degrees (excluding 0 degree). An MOS transistor with a moving direction of carriers being the [001] direction is formed on the surface of the silicon substrate. At this time, after steps existing on the surface of the silicon substrate are reconstituted by thermal treatment in a hydrogen atmosphere, a gate insulation film, a gate electrode and the like are formed.
