Semiconductor integrated circuit device and a method for manufacturing the same

摘要

An improved arrangement is provided for forming a bipolar transistor on a substrate with CMOS elements. All of the transistors (i.e., the bipolar, P-MOS and N-MOS) are formed in regions having gradually decreasing impurity concentrations from the surface toward the substrate. In addition, a buried layer is provided under each of the regions of decreasing impurity concentration in which the transistors are formed. These buried layers have a significantly higher impurity concentration than the portion of the region of decreasing impurity concentration which they are respectively adjacent to. Using this arrangement, punch-through is prevented and excellent electrical operating characteristics are provided for both the bipolar transistors and the CMOS elements.
