ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a highly integrated SOI semiconductor device and a method for fabricating the SOI semiconductor device by reducing a distance between diodes or well resistors without any reduction in insulating characteristics. The device includes a first conductivity type semiconductor substrate and a surface silicon layer formed by inserting an insulating layer on the semiconductor substrate. A trench is formed by etching a predetermined portion of surface silicon layer, insulating layer and substrate to expose a part of the semiconductor substrate to be used for an element separating region, and a STI is formed in the trench. A transistor is constructed on the surface silicon layer surrounded by the insulating layer and STI with a gate electrode being positioned at the center thereof and with source/drain region being formed in the surface silicon layer of both edges of the gate electrode for enabling its bottom part to be in contact with the insulating layer. A first groove is formed between the STI at one side of the transistor by etching the surface silicon layer and insulating layer to expose a predetermined portion of an active region of a second conductivity type well in the semiconductor substrate. A second groove is formed between the STI at one side of the first groove by etching the surface silicon layer and insulating layer to expose a predetermined portion of the active region of the semiconductor substrate. A first diode diffusion region of a first conductivity type is formed in a second conductivity type well under the first groove, and a second diode diffusion region of a second conductivity type is formed in the semiconductor substrate under the second groove.
