Patent attributes
The object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device comprising an n-type channel field effect transistor and a p-type channel field effect transistor, which has a high degree of reliability and excellent drain current characteristics. The gist of the invention for attaining the object resides in disposing a silicon nitride film to the side wall of a trench for an active region in which the n-type channel field effect transistor is formed and disposing the silicon nitride film only in the direction perpendicular to the channel direction to the sidewall of the trench for the active region of the p-type channel field effect transistor. According to the present invention, a semiconductor device comprising an n-type channel field effect transistor and a p-type channel field effect transistor of excellent current characteristics can be provided.
