ABSTRACT:
The semiconductor device fabrication method comprising the step of forming a gate electrode on a semiconductor substrate; the step of forming a source/drain diffused layer in the semiconductor substrate on both sides of the gate electrode; the step of burying a silicon germanium layer in the source/drain diffused layer; the step of forming an amorphous layer at an upper part of the silicon germanium layer; the step of forming a nickel film on the amorphous layer; and the step of making thermal processing to react the nickel film and the amorphous layer with each other to form a silicide film on the silicon germanium layer.
