Abstract

An integrated circuit comprises a substrate having a plurality of components electrically isolated by regions of amorphous material formed by laser irradiation. Typically the laser radiation has a wavelength less than 400 nm a pulse length between 0.1 and 10 .mu.sec, and a power density between 0.1 and 0.8 J/cm.sup.2. The substrate material may be Si, Ge, GaAs, GaAlAs, InAs, InP, InAlP.
