Abstract

An integrated circuit is described incorporating a substrate, a layer of insulator, a layer of silicon having raised mesas and thin regions therebetween to provide ohmic conduction between mesas, electronic devices on the mesas, and interconnection wiring. The invention overcomes the problem of a floating gate due to charge accumulation below the channel of MOS FET's.
