Abstract

A method is provided for producing a microelectronic device with plural zones made of a metal and semiconductor compound, from semiconductor zones made of different semiconductor materials, and on which a thin semiconductor layer is formed prior to the deposition of a metal layer so as to lower the nucleation barrier of the semiconductor zones when reacting with the metal layer.
