Abstract

A method is provided for producing a component based on a plurality of transistors on a substrate including an active area and an electrical isolation area, each transistor including a gate and spacers on either side of the gate, the electrical isolation area including at least one cavity formed as a hollow between a spacer of a first transistor of the plurality of transistors and a spacer of a second transistor of the plurality of transistors, the first and the second transistors being adjacent, the method including: forming the gates of the transistors; forming the spacers; and forming a mechanically constraining layer for the transistors; and after forming the spacers and before forming the mechanically constraining layer, forming a filling configured to at least partially fill, with a filling material, the at least one cavity within the electrical isolation area, between the spacers of the first and the second transistors.
