Abstract
A method for forming a field oxide isolation region for a field effect transistor for use in integrated circuit chip devices includes process steps which preserve planarity while at the same time providing an increased degree of radiation hardness. The bird's beak region of the device is provided with both thermally grown and deposited oxide layers in a planarity preserving process.
