Abstract

In conventional processes, a recombination rate of minority carrier accumulated between a diffusion layer of an anode and a diffusion layer of a cathode cannot be enhanced. An interlayer insulating filmis formed on a semiconductor substrate. An opening(first opening), an opening(second opening) and an openingare formed in the interlayer insulating film. The openingand the openingare formed above respective the p-type diffusion layerand the n-type diffusion layer. The openingis formed above the gap region that is a region between the p-type diffusion layerand the n-type diffusion layer. A contact plug, a contact plugand a contact plugare embedded in the opening, the openingand the openingrespectively. Both regions of the semiconductor substratelocated under the openingamong and located under the openingare doped with an impurity.
