Abstract

Structures including electrical isolation and methods associated with forming such structures. A semiconductor layer has a top surface, a polycrystalline region, and a single-crystal region between the polycrystalline region and the top surface. An isolation band is located beneath the single-crystal region. The isolation band contains a first concentration of an n-type dopant and a second concentration of a p-type dopant, and a net difference between the first concentration and the second concentration is within a range of about five percent to about fifteen percent.
