Abstract
A monocrystalline semiconductor substrate is provided, and a thin film pattern is defined on a surface thereof. An epitaxial layer is then grown on the substrate surface such that it overgrows the thin film pattern a predetermined distance. That portion of the thin film not covered by the epitaxial layer is then removed.
