Abstract
A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device includes the following steps. A first stacked structure and a second stacked structure are formed on a core region and an input/output (I/O) region of a semiconductor substrate respectively. The first stacked structure includes a first patterned oxide layer, a first patterned nitride layer, and a first dummy gate. The second stacked structure includes a second patterned oxide layer, a second patterned nitride layer, and a second dummy gate. The first dummy gate and the second dummy gate are removed for forming a first recess above the core region and a second recess above the I/O region. A first gate structure is formed in the first recess and a second gate structure is formed in the second recess. The first patterned nitride layer is removed before the step of forming the first gate structure in the first recess.
