Abstract

The efficacy of dielectrically isolated device formation on a substrate is substantially enhanced through a specific set of processing steps. In particular, before silicon oxide regions, e.g., gate oxide regions, are produced, bulk polycrystalline areas are heat treated to substantially increase their polycrystalline silicon grain size.
