Abstract
An anti-reflection structure formed on a gate electrode in a MOSFET device includes a first and second anti-reflection layers sandwiching therebetween a silicon nitride layer. Each of the anti-reflection layers has a two-layer structure including a silicon oxide nitride film and a protective silicon oxide film. The anti-reflection layer structure improves the accuracy of the pattern size for the gate electrode.
