Abstract
A manufacturing method is capable of preventing corrosion of a metal oxide semiconductor. The manufacturing method sequentially forms a polysilicon layer, a silicide layer and a top cap layer over a substrate, and then etching to form a gate structure. Next, a rapid thermal process is carried out to form an oxide layer over the exposed sidewalls of the silicide layer. Finally, the substrate is cleaned, and then of a source/drain region having a lightly doped drain structure is formed on each side of the gate.
