Abstract

A semiconductor device wherein collector connecting wiring made of for example n.sup.+ -type polycrystalline silicon layer is formed by an anisotropic etching which simultaneously engrave a groove in a semiconductor substrate. A collector layer is formed on a non-etched projection, while base contact hole is formed in the lower portion of the groove. Therefore, the base contact hole is not contacted with collector layer, thus preventing the flow of a leakage current and short-circuiting therebetween.
