Abstract:
An offset spacer film (OSS) is formed on a side wall surface of a gate electrode (NLGE, PLGE) to cover a region in which a photo diode (PD) is disposed. Next, an extension region (LNLD, LPLD) is formed using the offset spacer film and the like as an implantation mask. Next, process is provided to remove the offset spacer film covering the region in which the photo diode is disposed. Next, a sidewall insulating film (SWI) is formed on the side wall surface of the gate electrode. Next, a source-drain region (HPDF, LPDF, HNDF, LNDF) is formed using the sidewall insulating film and the like as an implantation mask.

Claim (Index 23):
The method for manufacturing the image capturing device according to  claim 14 , wherein\n in the step (b), a second peripheral gate electrode of a second peripheral transistor is further formed adjacent to the first peripheral transistor in the peripheral region; and the method further comprises, after the step (c) and before the step (d), the step of: (r) forming second extension diffusion regions in the peripheral region on opposite side surface sides of the second peripheral gate electrode by implanting an impurity of a predetermined conductivity type using the second peripheral gate electrode as an implantation mask.
