Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a first conductivity type low concentration impurity layer provided around a thick silicon oxide film, which is formed for element isolation in a first conductivity type element region as a surface region in a semiconductor substrate, and a second conductivity type impurity layer which is provided immediately under at least the thick silicon oxide film. The second conductivity type impurity layer constitutes a channel stopper to enhance the effect of element isolation. The first conductivity type low concentration impurity layer has an effect of improving the P-N junction breakdown voltage of an active region in the first conductivity type element region, and suppresses the narrow channel effect of a MOS transistor in the first conductivity type element region.
