ABSTRACT:
A p-channel MOSFET1has a buried layer9between a substrate2and an epitaxial layer3. The impurity concentration of the buried layer9is higher than that of the epitaxial layer3. As a result, if the p-channel MOSFET3and an n-channel MOSFET are fabricated in a single semiconductor substrate and when a voltage is applied between the source electrode13and the drain electrode12, the impurity concentration of the epitaxial layer3apparently increases. Thus, the charge balance of the p-channel MOSFET1is not lost.
