The object of the present invention is to provide a method of manufacturing high permittivity gate dielectrics for a device such as an MOSFET. A HfSiO film is formed by sputtering a Hf metal film on a SiO2 film (or a SiON film) on a Si wafer. A TiO2 film is formed by sputtering a Ti metal film on the HfSiO film and subjecting the Ti metal film to a thermal oxidation treatment. A TiN metal film is deposited on the TiO2 film. The series of treatments are performed continuously, without exposing the films and the wafer to atmospheric air. The resultant TiN/TiO2/HfSiO/SiO2/Si structure satisfies the conditions: EOT<1.0 nm, low leakage current, and hysteresis <20 mV.
