Abstract
Device isolation regions for isolating a device forming region are formed over a substrate. Subsequently, a gate insulation film is formed over the device forming region. Then, a lower gate electrode film comprised of a metal nitride film is formed over the gate insulation film. Further, a heat treatment is performed to the lower gate electrode film and then an upper gate electrode film is formed over the lower gate electrode film.
