Abstract
To provide a semiconductor device having improved reliability. An element isolation region comprised mainly of silicon oxide is buried in a trench formed in a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate in an active region surrounded by the element isolation region has thereon a gate electrode for MISFET via a gate insulating film. The gate electrode partially extends over the element isolation region and the trench has a nitrided inner surface. Below the gate electrode, fluorine is introduced into the vicinity of a boundary between the element isolation region and a channel region of MISFET.
