There is provided a semiconductor device having a novel structure in which high reliability and high field effect mobility can be simultaneously achieved. In an insulated gate transistor formed on a single crystal silicon substrate, pinning regions 105 and 106 are formed at the ends of a channel formation region 102. The pinning regions 105 and 106 suppress the expansion of a depletion layer from the drain side to prevent a short channel effect. In addition, they also serve as a path for extracting minority carriers generated as a result of impact ionization to prevent breakdown phenomena induced by carrier implantation. |
