Abstract

A semiconductor device prevents latch up and enables subminiaturization of its structure, and a method can manufacture the semiconductor device. In the semiconductor device containing field-effect transistors of a complementary type, an interconnection containing semiconductor having n-type impurity connects a p-type impurity diffusion region forming an emitter electrode of a parasitically formed bipolar transistor to an n-type impurity diffusion region electrically connected to a power supply line. Thereby, a pn junction operating as a rectifier element is formed at a contact region between a connection portion and the p-type impurity diffusion region.
