Abstract
An improved process of forming planar silicon-on-sapphire MOS integrated circuit devices by a local oxidation process in which portions of a silicon layer on a sapphire substrate are thermally oxidized throughout the thickness of the layer to provide interdevice dielectric isolation and a substantially planar topology includes a step of ion implanting phosphorus, boron, or a combination thereof into the silicon prior to the thermal oxidation step. The implanted impurities have a stabilizing effect on the devices thereafter built in the remaining silicon.
