Abstract

One illustrative method disclosed herein includes forming a trench within an isolated region of a bulk semiconductor substrate, forming a region of an insulating material in the trench and forming a semiconductor material within the trench and above the upper surface of the region of insulating material. A substrate disclosed herein includes an isolated substrate region in a bulk semiconductor substrate, a region of an insulating material that is positioned within a trench defined in the isolated substrate region and a semiconductor material positioned within the trench and above the upper surface of the region of insulating material.
