Abstract
A process for manufacturing discrete electronic devices with active structures in an SOI (silicon-on-insulator) substrate which is thickened by an epitaxial layer and whose surface has a <100> orientation, said process comprising the steps of: anisotropically etching the first silicon layer to form a moat having a diameter tapering in the direction of the insulator layer, said moat extending to the insulator layer; forming an insulating layer on the sidewalls of the moat; removing a portion of the insulator layer adjoining the moat to expose a portion of the second silicon layer, which is separated from the first silicon layer by the insulator layer; forming the active structure in the second silicon layer below the portion of the insulator layer which was removed; and depositing a contact layer on the insulating layer and the active element for making contact to the active structure.
