Methods of producing integrated circuits and integrated circuits produced by those methods are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a method of producing an integrated circuit includes forming first and second shallow trench isolations within a substrate, where the first and second shallow trench isolations have an initial shallow trench height. A base well is formed in the substrate, where the base well is positioned between the first and second shallow trench isolations. A gate dielectric is formed overlying the base well, and a floating gate is formed overlying the gate dielectric. An initial shallow trench height is reduced to a reduced shallow trench height shorter than the initial shallow trench height after the floating gate is formed.

Integrated circuits with programmable memory and methods for producing the same

Disclosed are a group-III nitride-based semiconductor device that is grown over the surface of a composite intermediate layers consisting of a thin amorphous silicon film or any stress-relief film or a combination of them and at least one multi-layered buffer on silicon substrate, and a method of fabricating the same device. The intermediate layers that suppress the occurrence of crystal defects and propagation of misfit dislocations induced by the lattice mismatch between the epitaxial layer and substrate, ca n be grown on a part or the entirety of the surface of a silicon (001) or (111) substrate which can be single crystal or coated with a thin amorphous silicon film. Then at least one layer or multiple layers of high quality group-III nitride-based semiconductors are grown over the composite intermediate layers.
