Abstract
A method for producing a semiconductor device having a first region with storage capacitors and a second region with at least one well surrounded by an insulation. The method creates both the storage capacitors and the insulation by forming trenches in the first region and at least one trench in the second region, and the trenches have a depth of at least 2 &mgr;m. The trenches in the first region are treated to provide first and second electrodes separated by a dielectric to form the capacitors and each trench in the second region provides an insulation which surrounds any wells in the second region.
