Abstract

The formation of silicon dioxide isolated silicon islands on the surface of a substrate is improved by utilizing as an oxidation mask a patterned layer of silicon nitride which is deposited by LPCVD directly onto the surface of the silicon wafer. The subject method substantially reduces the incidence of stress related defects in the silicon surface and therefore eliminates the need for a layer of pad oxide which, if present, would cause 'bird's beak' formation.
