    Abstract: A method for fabricating dielectric isolated integrated devices which allows the formation of a truly planar surface. The method includes etching isolation channels in a semiconductor substrate through a suitable mask. The mask pattern is designed to enhance deeper etching at certain locations in the isolation channels. A dielectric layer is formed over the exposed surfaces of the isolation channels and a semiconductor material is grown in the channels. The deeper etched locations which are now filled with dielectric isolation are used as a depth guide in the formation of a dielectric layer from the semiconductor substrate surface opposite to the one from which the etching took place. The depth guide can be used in either a deep etch or lap-back process. The last isolation step is then to continue the dielectric layer past the depth guide to the major portion of the isolation channels to produce the fully isolated islands of semiconductor material in the semiconductor substrate.

    Abstract: A high frequency field effect transistor is made by first epitaxially growing semiconductor channel and drain layers over a source layer. An oxide layer is formed on the upper drain layer which acts as a mask during etching of the epitaxial layers. Anisotropic etching of the semiconductor forms a mesa configuration of the channel and drain layers which is overlapped by the upper oxide layer. Metal is then evaporated onto the mesa from a point opposite the oxide layer. The overhanging oxide layer masks part of the mesa, particularly the drain layer, to define precisely the area covered by the evaporated gate contact, as required for high frequency operation. Other embodiments are also described.

    Abstract: Silicon semiconductor devices containing boron doped regions are produced using borosilicate glass as a doping source and silica glass as a masking layer. After the device is heated to produce boron diffusion into the silicon surface, a preferential etchant is used to remove the borosilicate glass while leaving the masking layer substantially in place for use in subsequent processing steps. The etchant is an aqueous solution of HF and HNO3.

    Abstract: Poly-silicon electrodes are provided for use with source and drain regions of insulated gate field-effect transistors as well as a method for contacting silicon gate devices utilizing polysilicon electrodes and a single etching step. The single etching step obviates the use of an additional masking operation for forming preohmic holes in the vicinity of the source and drain regions for the device. The provision of preohmic holes at the source and drain regions necessitates large area source and drain regions so as to permit clearance for the metallization through preohmic holes. These large areas decrease packing density. The subject method however permits high density packing of the silicon gate devices because small area source and drain regions and small area electrodes can be used. Because of the use of poly-silicon electrodes, the process allows the probing of the chip at intermediate stages in device fabrication. This allows the elimination of those chips which have not satisfied design limitations at an intermediate step in the fabrication process. In the process the source and drain regions and the electrodes are doped simultaneously in a diffusion step. In this diffusion process part of the source and drain regions are diffused through that portion of the poly-silicon contact extending over the source or drain region. In this manner ohmic contact is made between the electrodes and the underlying source or drain regions.
