Abstract
A mask layer having an opening is formed on a semiconductor substrate. Next, oxygen ions and a first impurity are implanted into the semiconductor substrate using the mask layer as a mask. Then, the mask layer is removed. Next, the oxygen ions are heat treated to react and form an oxide film on the region where the first impurity has been implanted. Then, the oxide film is removed to form a depression in the semiconductor substrate. Next, a gate insulating film and a gate electrode are formed on the depression. Then a second impurity is implanted into the surface of the semiconductor substrate to form a source/drain. An impurity lighter than the oxygen ions and the second impurity is used as the first impurity.
