  • Method of fabricating electronic devices integrated in semiconductor substrates provided with gettering sites, and a device fabricated by the method
    Patent number: 6709955
    Abstract: A method of fabricating electronic devices, integrated monolithically in a semiconductor substrate having at least one non-active area contiguous with at least one device active area, which method comprises at least one step of implanting ions of a noble gas, followed by a thermal treatment to form getter microcavities in the semiconductor by evaporation of the noble gas, wherein the implanting step is carried out in the non-active area of the semiconductor.
    Type: Grant
