Abstract

A gate insulating film is formed on a main surface of a substrate in which an element isolation region is formed. A metal film is formed on the gate insulating film. A silicon film is formed on the metal film. A gate electrode of a MIS transistor composed of a stacked structure of the silicon film and metal film is formed on an element region and a high-resistance element composed of a stacked structure of the silicon film and metal film is formed on the element isolation region by patterning the silicon film and metal film. An acid-resistant insulating film is formed on the side of the gate electrode. The metal film of the high-resistance element is oxidized. A diffused layer of the MIS transistor is formed in the substrate.

Claims (6)

1. A semiconductor device comprising:

a MIS transistor which includes a gate electrode composed of a stacked structure of a metal film and a first silicon film formed on the metal film; and

a high-resistance element composed of a stacked structure of an oxide film of the metal film and a second silicon film formed on the oxide film.

2. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein the second silicon film is higher in impurity concentration than the first silicon film.

3. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein materials for the metal film are one of Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb and Ta or nitride or carbide of these.

4. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein materials for the metal film are alloys of one of Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb and Ta and Al or Si or nitride or carbide of these alloys.
