Substrates with Buried Isolation Layers and Methods of Formation Thereof

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming an opening in a first epitaxial lateral overgrowth region to expose a surface of the semiconductor substrate within the opening. The method further includes forming an insulation region at the exposed surface of the semiconductor substrate within the opening and filling the opening with a second semiconductor material to form a second epitaxial lateral overgrowth region using a lateral epitaxial growth process.

Shallow trench isolation regions made from crystalline oxides

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device that involves etching a trench in a semiconductor substrate, epitaxially growing a crystalline structure in the trench and forming semiconductor structures on either side of the crystalline structure. Crystalline oxides may include rare earth oxides, aluminum oxides or Perovskites.

SHALLOW TRENCH ISOLATION REGIONS MADE FROM CRYSTALLINE OXIDES

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device that involves etching a trench in a semiconductor substrate, epitaxially growing a crystalline structure in the trench and forming semiconductor structures on either side of the crystalline structure. Crystalline oxides may include rare earth oxides, aluminum oxides or Perovskites.
