Abstract

Abstract A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. A semiconductor substrate is prepared and a gate oxide film is formed on a surface of the semiconductor substrate. The gate oxide film is selectively removed to expose portions of the semiconductor substrate and a first polysilicon layer is formed on a resultant semiconductor structure. Impurities are implanted in the polysilicon layer and a resultant semiconductor structure is annealed to activate the impurities. The first polysilicon layer is patterned to form a base electrode of the bipolar transistor and a gate and/or drain electrode of the MOS transistor. An insulating layer is then formed on a resultant semiconductor structure. Portions of the semiconductor substrate are then selectively exposed and a second polysilicon layer is formed on a resultant semiconductor structure. The second polysilicon layer is then patterned to form an emitter electrode of the bipolar transistor.
