A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor layer formed by epitaxial
growth in a first region which is obtained by etching a semiconductor
substrate to a predetermined depth, a surface of the semiconductor layer
having a same height from the bottom of the semiconductor substrate as a
height of a surface of the semiconductor substrate, a buried insulating
layer buried between the semiconductor substrate and the semiconductor
layer and an element isolation region separating each element region in
the semiconductor layer and isolating the semiconductor layer from the
semiconductor substrate in plan.
