Abstract
In a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, impurity ion is implanted into a semiconductor layer so as to form an ion implantation region in the semiconductor layer, and at least the ion implantation region is turned amorphous. Then, an insulating film is formed on the semiconductor layer at a temperature at which the ion implantation region is not crystallized, and then the semiconductor layer is annealed in a non-oxidizing atmosphere so as to activate the impurity ion implanted into the semiconductor layer.
