PURPOSE: To inhibit a temperature rise generated in an SOI wafer by partially burying an insulating film into a single-crystal silicon substrate.
CONSTITUTION: A circuit 1 (34) is formed into a region, in which an insulator is not buried, on the left side of a single-crystal silicon substrate 31, a circuit 3 (36) into a region, in which an insulating film is not buried, on the right side of the substrate 31 and a circuit 2 (35) to a thin single-crystal silicon layer on the insulating film 32. There is no insulating layer under the circuit 1 of 34 and the circuit 3 of 36, and heat generated by operating these circuits 1, 3 escapes to the semi-conductive single-crystal silicon substrate 31. On the other hand, high speed properties are required particularly in the circuit 2 of 35 formed to the thin single-crystal silicon layer, an SOI layer 33, in the upper section of the insulating film 32, and heat generated in the SOI layer 33 by operating the circuit 2 proceeds to upper sections 37 and 38 at both end sections of the insulating film 32, and dissipated to the whole substrate 31 from the upper sections 37 and 38. Accordingly, the rise of a temperature can be inhibited even during the operation of the circuit 2.
