Abstract
A semiconductor device. A semiconductor substrate has a first conductivity. A first insulating layer is on the semiconductor substrate and has an opening so that a portion of the semiconductor substrate is exposed. A semiconductor layer has a second conductivity on the portion. A region in said semiconductor layer prevents a leakage current caused by a minute defect and faceting.
