Abstract
A method for forming a semiconductor devices structure includes providing a semiconductor substrate, forming a deep trench continuously in the substrate to separate a first region from a second region, and then forming a silicon-on-insulator region in the first region while maintaining a non-silicon-on-insulator region in the second region. The deep trench has a depth which is at least as deep as the depth of the buried oxide in the substrate. The invention also includes a device structure resulting from the method.
