Patent ID: 8071454

Claim:
A method for manufacturing a dielectric isolation type semiconductor device comprising: forming a plurality of trenches in a first region located on a major surface of a semiconductor substrate; forming a first dielectric layer on the major surface of the semiconductor substrate and a first thick dielectric layer in the first region by oxidizing a surface of the semiconductor substrate; bonding a semiconductor layer of a first conductive type to the semiconductor substrate via the first dielectric layer; forming a first semiconductor region by implanting an impurity into a part of the semiconductor layer above the first thick dielectric layer; forming a second semiconductor region by implanting an impurity of a second conductive type into a part of the semiconductor layer so as to surround and to be separated from the first semiconductor region; forming a first main electrode connected to the first semiconductor region; forming a second main electrode connected to the second semiconductor region; forming a lower electrode on a lower surface of the semiconductor substrate; and forming a plurality of trenches in a second region located on a major surface of the semiconductor layer; forming a second dielectric layer on the major surface of the semiconductor layer and a second thick dielectric layer in the second region by oxidizing a surface of the semiconductor layer; and performing alignment so that the first thick dielectric layer and the second thick dielectric layer face one another; and joining the first dielectric layer and the second dielectric layer, when the semiconductor layer is bonded to the semiconductor substrate.
