Abstract
A method for producing a semiconductor device including a bipolar transistor, has the steps of: forming an element isolating region in a major surface of a semiconductor substrate to define an element forming region to form a collector region in the element forming region surrounded by the element isolating region; allowing the epitaxial growth of a semiconductor layer on the major surface of the semiconductor substrate to form a base region of the semiconductor layer on the collector region; forming a growth inhibiting film on a region forming the base region of the semiconductor layer; removing the growth inhibiting film to expose a part of the semiconductor layer; covering the upper surface and side wall of the conductive film, which is exposed in the predetermined region, with an insulator film; covering the side wall of the conductive film, which is exposed in the predetermined region; and forming an emitter region in a surface region of the predetermined region of the semiconductor layer, which is surrounded by the conductive film.
