Abstract

A method for producing a bipolar transistor completely surrounded by an insulating trench in a substrate. Insulating regions at the surface of the substrate can be produced by depositing an SiO.sub.2 layer on the basis of thermal decomposition of TEOS and subsequent structuring of the SiO.sub.2 layer. The insulating regions can be employed as a self-aligning mask for the production of a collector terminal and of a substrate terminal.
