Abstract

Fabrication of radio-frequency (RF) devices involves 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 an interface material to at least a portion of the backside of the oxide layer, removing at least a portion of the interface material to form a trench, and covering at least a portion of the interface material and the trench with a substrate layer to form a cavity.
