Abstract
Abstract A method for the manufacture of a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of forming ohmic contact portions at the same time, then forming a semiconductor layer on the entire surface including the open portions, and selectively introducing impurities by ion implantation into the contact portions of the semiconductor layer and isolated other element regions, thereby producing a transistor and other elements. This method results in the simultaneous production of a transistor and other elements and simplifies the steps of the process of manufacture.
