ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device having a first insulation film, a base contact and a second insulation film on a semiconductor substrate. The first and second insulation films and the base contact respectively have openings which forms a hole extending therethrough on the substrate. An end of the base contact is projected over the substrate in the hole. A base connection region is in contact with the side and bottom faces of the projected end of the base contact and with a surface of a base region in the hole. An emitter region is formed in the base region. Reduced contact resistance between the base contact and the base connection region can be obtained.
