Abstract

By using a single trench mask, first and second trenches are formed that extend from a main surface into a semiconductor layer. A foundation is formed that includes first regions in and/or directly adjoining the first trenches. A superstructure is formed in alignment with the foundation by using position information directly obtained from structures formed in the first and/or the second trenches.
