| 摘要 |
The present invention is generally directed to a method of forming a pseudo SOI substrate and semiconductor devices. In one illustrative embodiment, the method comprises forming a plurality of trenches in a semiconducting substrate comprised of silicon, each of the trenches having a depth, forming a layer of insulating material within each of the plurality of trenches, the layer of insulating material having a thickness that is less than the depth of the trenches, and performing an anneal process on the substrate in a hydrogen environment to cause the silicon substrate material to merge above the layer of insulating material within the plurality of trenches to thereby define a pseudo SOI substrate.
