Abstract

A device is disclosed comprising a non-planar semiconductor substrate and a planarizing layer thereon, the planarizing layer having a maximum thickness that is no greater than about 3.mu. and a planarization factor P.gtoreq.1.0. In a preferred embodiment, the layer comprises a polymer formed from a liquid monomer coated onto the substrate and thereafter polymerized.
