Abstract
A buried insulating layer is provided in a semiconductor substrate, in a position separated from its major surface. A LOCOS isolation film is provided in the major surface of the semiconductor substrate for isolating an active region from other active regions. A thin-film transistor is provided in the active region. The thin-film transistor comprises a gate electrode which is provided on the active region with interposition of a gate insulating layer. A pair of source/drain layers are provided in the major surface of the semiconductor substrate on both sides of the gate electrode. A high-concentration impurity layer is provided in the semiconductor substrate immediately under the buried insulating layer.
