Abstract

Low resistance contact paths to selected buried layers in dielectrically isolated islands are formed by V-etching the selected island moats in a substrate, non-selectively diffusing impurities into the surface of the substrate and selected moats, V-etching to form all the moat structure, forming a dielectric layer on said surface and moats, applying support material to over-fill said moats and cover said surface, removing the opposite surface of said substrate to expose support material, and forming devices in said opposite surface.
