| 摘要 |
A semiconductor device having a metal insulator semiconductor field effect transistor (MISFET) with interface resistance-reduced source/drain electrodes is disclosed. This device includes a p-type MISFET formed on a semiconductor substrate. The p-MISFET has a channel region in the substrate, a gate insulating film on the channel region, a gate electrode on the gate insulating film, and a pair of laterally spaced-apart source and drain electrodes on both sides of the channel region. These source/drain electrodes are each formed of a nickel (Ni)-containing silicide layer. The p-MISFET further includes an interface layer which is formed on the substrate side of an interface between the substrate and each source/drain electrode. This interface layer contains magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca) or barium (Ba) therein. A fabrication method of the semiconductor device is also disclosed.
