Abstract

Fabricating of radio-frequency (RF) devices involve providing a field-effect transistor (FET) formed over an oxide layer formed on a semiconductor substrate, removing at least part of the semiconductor substrate to expose at least a portion of a backside of the oxide layer, applying a sacrificial material to the backside of the oxide layer, applying an interface material to at least a portion of the backside of the oxide layer, the interface material at least partially covering the sacrificial material, and removing at least a portion of the sacrificial material to form a cavity at least partially covered by the interface layer.
