Abstract
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device is shown which includes a step of ion implanting an impurity into an impurity-region formation region of a semiconductor substrate. Before or after the ion implantation step, silicon ions are implanted in a dose of 1.times.10.sup.13 to 1.times.10.sup.15 /cm.sup.2 into the impurity-region formation region and then the silicon ions so implanted are subjected to an activation treatment to form an epitaxial grown protrusion on the surface of the substrate. The protrusion is used as an alignment mark in the subsequent mask alignment step for photolithography.
