Abstract:
An insulating film and another insulating film are formed over a semiconductor substrate in that order to cover first, second, and third gate electrodes. The another insulating film is etched back to form sidewall spacers over side surfaces of the insulating film. Then, the sidewall spacers over the side surfaces of the insulating films corresponding to the sidewalls of the first and second gate electrodes are removed to leave the sidewall spacers over the side surfaces of the insulating film corresponding to the sidewalls of the third gate electrode. Then, the sidewall spacers and the insulating films are etched back, so that the sidewall spacers are formed of the insulating film over the sidewalls of the first, second, and third gate electrodes.

Claim (Index 11):
The manufacturing method of a semiconductor device according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the first width of the third sidewall insulating film corresponds to a size of the third sidewall insulating film at a lower part of the side surface of the first gate electrode in a direction parallel to a gate length direction of the first gate electrode, and wherein the second width of the fourth sidewall insulating film corresponds to a size of the fourth sidewall insulating film at a lower part of the side surface of the second gate electrode in a direction parallel to agate length direction of the second gate electrode.
