摘要 |
The present invention provides a semiconductor integrated circuit having excellent junction characteristics when applying the silicide technology to an extremely narrowed diffusion layer between adjacent gate electrodes as well as a method for manufacturing the same. To attain this object, a configuration of the invention has electrode layers formed on a semiconductor substrate, sidewall layers formed on the side walls of electrode layers, and high-melting point metal silicide layers formed on the electrode layers, wherein the sidewall layers are connected together. This makes it possible to eliminate abnormal growth during silicide formation because of the fact that the region defined between the electrode layers on the substrate is covered by the sidewall layers.
