METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A SUBSTANTIALLY INTEGRAL MONOLITHIC APPARATUS INCLUDING A PLURALITY OF SEMICONDUCTOR MATERIALS

摘要

A method for manufacturing a monolithic apparatus including a plurality of materials presenting a plurality of coplanar lands includes the steps of: (a) providing a substrate constructed of a first material and presenting a first land; (b) trenching the substrate to effect a cavity appropriately dimensioned to receive a semiconductor structure in an orientation presenting a second land generally coplanar with the first land; (c) depositing an accommodating layer constructed of a second material on the substrate and within the cavity to establish a workpiece; (d) depositing a composition layer constructed of a third material on the substrate; (e) selectively removing portions of the composition layer and the accommodating layer to establish the semiconductor structure; (f) depositing a cap layer constructed of a fourth material on the workpiece; and (g) removing the cap layer to establish a substantially planar face displaced from the plurality of lands by a predetermined distance.
