Abstract
A method for manufacturing a PMOSFET uses a trench-type gate structure only in a PMOSFET region of a peripheral circuit, except for a cell, to overcome the shortcomings of a MOSFET caused by reduction in design rule, realize stable threshold voltage, and improve the characteristics and reliability of a PMOSFET transistor through reduction in channel dose.

A method for manufacturing a PMOSFET comprising the steps of:
- providing a semiconductor substrate having a PMOS region of a peripheral circuit defined thereon;
- forming an isolation layer in the substrate;
- forming a pad oxide film, a polycrystalline silicon film, and a first photoresist pattern for exposing a gate formation region successively on the substrate including the isolation layer;
