7. A method for producing a semiconductor device comprising the steps of:
-
forming a high dielectric constant film containing a metal, oxygen and a predetermine substance on a substrate;
performing a heat treatment with respect to the high dielectric constant film to diffuse silicon from the side of the substrate into the high dielectric constant film, thereby forming a silicon-containing high dielectric constant film; and
forming a conductive film for serving as a gate electrode on the silicon-containing high dielectric constant film. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
