Abstract

A method for producing a layer of AlN having substantially vertical sides relative to the surface of a substrate, including: the formation of an AlN growth layer on a substrate, the deposition of the AlN layer, on at least said growth layer, the formation of a mask layer over the AlN layer, at least one edge of which is aligned with at least one edge or side of the growth layer, in a plane which is substantially perpendicular to a surface of the substrate or a surface of the growth layer, and the etching of the AlN layer.
