A method of manufacturing an EEPROM device is disclosed. An example method forms
a screen oxide film on a semiconductor substrate, forms a first ion implantation
mask defining a gate insulating film forming region on the screen oxide film, and
performs a first ion implantation on the semiconductor substrate and the first
ion implantation mask. The example method also performs a first annealing of the
semiconductor substrate, removes the screen oxide film and the first ion implantation
mask, and forms a gate oxide film on the semiconductor substrate. In addition,
the example method forms a second ion implantation mask defining a gate insulating
film forming region on the gate oxide film, performs a second ion implantation
on the semiconductor substrate and the second ion implantation mask, performs a
second annealing for the semiconductor substrate, removes the second ion implantation
mask; and forms a tunnel oxide film on the gate oxide film.
