Abstract:
A method of producing a semiconductor device comprising the steps of:(a) forming partially an SOI structure portion comprising an insulation layer and a semiconductor layer on a semiconductor substrate;(b) forming selectively a first oxidation-resistant film on a region other than device isolation region-forming portions of the SOI structure portion and of an exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate;(c) forming an oxide film in the device isolation region-forming portions of the semiconductor substrate and of the SOI structure portion under such condition that the semiconductor layer of the SOI structure portion is oxidized up to the bottom of the semiconductor layer;(d) depositing a second oxidation-resistant film over the entire surface of the resultant obtained by the above steps (a) to (c);(e) etching away selectively the second oxidation-resistant film on the exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate using a resist mask so patterned as to cover the SOI structure portion;(f1) implanting an impurity ion into the semiconductor substrate using the resist mask; and(g1) removing the resist mask, and conducting heat-treatment to activate the implanted impurity ion and increase the thickness of the oxide film in the device isolation region-forming portion of the exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate to a predetermined film thickness.
