Abstract
A bipolar semiconductor device including a collector layer covered at a portion of an outer periphery thereof with an insulating film and having a shape extending in an upper direction and a horizontal direction, with a gap being formed between the collector layer and the insulating film, and further including a base layer and an emitter layer disposed over the collector layer, and a manufacturing method of the semiconductor device. Since the collector layer has a shape extending in a portion thereof in the upward direction and the horizontal direction, an external collector region can be deleted, and both the parasitic capacitance and the collector capacitance in the intrinsic portion attributable to the collector can be decreased and, accordingly, a bipolar transistor capable of high speed operation at a reduced consumption power can be constituted.
