Conventionally, when an electric potential of a supporting substrate is fixed, there arises a problem in that impact ions are generated even in the vicinity of embedded insulating film in the proximity of a drain due to generation of a parasitic transistor using the supporting substrate as a gate so as to be likely to cause a parasitic bipolar operation.
