Abstract
A silicon wafer incorporating several semiconductor components, among them a junction-type field-effect transistor (J-FET) of low pinch-off voltage connectable as a resistor, comprises a substrate of P-type conductivity with an insular layer of N.sup.+ conductivity penetrated by one or more enclaves of substrate material. Thereafter, a stratum of N-doped silicon is epitaxially grown on the substrate, with formation of rising zones above each enclave and around the buried N.sup.+ layer which are heavily doped with P-type impurities to act as source connections or sinkers for an FET channel formed by the enclave or enclaves and as a barrier junction surrounding a section of the N-doped stratum which becomes the gate of the FET while the substrate serves as the drain.
