Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the light incidence into the region of diffused layers and thus contrive to improve the leakage characteristic of P-N junction, by forming Al over the diffused layers of a MOSFET. CONSTITUTION:In the MOSFET consisting of a source diffused layer 8, a gate 9, and a source diffused layer 10, a light shielding Al 15 formed simultaneously with a wiring Al 11 is connected to fixed potentials such as a power source and arranged over the source diffused layer 10 contributed to store and retain charges. Since the light incident through a transparent package 14 reflects on the surface of the Al layer 15 after passing through a transparent protection film 19, the light incidence into the P-N junction constituted of the layer 10 and a substrate 16 is prevented, and accordingly the increase of leakage current at the junction of 10-16 is prevented. Further, the capacity of the diffused layer 10 is increased in total capacity to store and retain because of the additiin of the capacity for the Al 15.
