Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a first diffusion layer, an insulating film, and an electrode. The first diffusion layer is formed on the surface of a first-conductivity-type semiconductor substrate and has an opposite conductivity type. The insulating film is formed on the first diffusion layer. The electrode is made of a conductor layer formed on the insulating film. The width of the electrode is smaller than a value twice the length by which an impurity doped into the surface of the semiconductor substrate, using the electrode as a mask, laterally diffuses during annealing to a position immediately below the electrode.
