Abstract
A semiconductor structure includes a substrate having a first dielectric constant, a porous semiconductor layer situated over the substrate, and a crystalline epitaxial layer situated over the porous semiconductor layer. A first semiconductor device is situated in the crystalline epitaxial layer. The porous semiconductor layer has a second dielectric constant that is substantially less than the first dielectric constant such that the porous semiconductor layer reduces signal leakage from the first semiconductor device. The semiconductor structure can include a second semiconductor device situated in the crystalline epitaxial layer, and an electrical isolation region separating the first and second semiconductor devices.
