Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a photoelectric conversion apparatus includes heating a semiconductor substrate while a pixel circuit area is covered with an insulator film, performing ion implantation into the pixel circuit area through the insulator film, performing ion implantation into a peripheral circuit area after the heating, and forming a side wall on a side surface of a gate electrode of a transistor after the performing ion implantation into the peripheral circuit area.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of manufacturing a photoelectric conversion apparatus, the manufacturing method comprising:\n preparing a semiconductor substrate that includes a pixel circuit area and a peripheral circuit area; forming an insulator film that covers the pixel circuit area and the peripheral circuit area after formation of a gate electrode of a first transistor over the pixel circuit area; heating the semiconductor substrate while the pixel circuit area is covered with the insulator film; performing ion implantation into the pixel circuit area through the insulator film; performing ion implantation into the peripheral circuit area after formation of a gate electrode of a second transistor over the peripheral circuit area and after the heating; and forming a side wall on a side surface of the gate electrode of the second transistor after the ion implantation into the peripheral circuit area, wherein, in the ion implantation into the peripheral circuit area, at least a part of a source/drain region of the second transistor is formed.
