E-RAM with cobalt silicide layer over source/drain of memory cell part and over source/drain and gate wiring of logic part

摘要

Gate wiring is formed serving as first gate wiring in a DRAM-forming area, and gate wiring 33 is formed as second gate wiring in a logic-forming area. Then, cobalt silicide layer 37 is formed over a source/drain diffused layer in the DRAM-forming area, and cobalt silicide layer is formed over a source/drain diffused layer and the gate wiring in the logic-forming area. Such formation of the cobalt silicide layer reduces the resistance of the gate wiring and the contact resistance, and thereby enables the high-speed operation of a semiconductor device even if the device is microfabricated.
