Abstract
A semiconductor device comprises: a memory cell region having a first transistor and a peripheral circuit region having a second transistor. The first transistor has a first source electrode and a first drain electrode, a first buried gate insulating film which is formed along an inner wall of a trench and whose relative dielectric constant is higher than a relative dielectric constant of silicon oxide, and a buried gate electrode. The second transistor has a second source electrode and a second drain electrode, a first on-substrate gate insulating film whose relative dielectric constant is higher than a relative dielectric constant of silicon oxide, and an on-substrate gate electrode. A first Hf content percentage, which is a content percentage of hafnium in the first buried gate insulating film, is different from a second Hf content percentage, which is a content percentage of hafnium in the first on-substrate gate insulating film.
