A method for producing a component is provided, a base of which is formed by transistors on a substrate, including: forming a gate area, spacers, and a protective coating partly covering the spacers and a sidewall portion of a cavity without covering a top face of the gate area and a base portion of the cavity; forming a contact module, the gate located in beneath the module; and removing part of the coating with an isotropic light-ion implantation to form modified superficial parts in a thickness, respectively, of the contact module, of the coating, and of the base portion, and with an application of a plasma to: etch the modified superficial parts to only preserve, in the coating, a residual part of the coating, and to form a silicon oxide-based film on exposed surfaces, respectively, of the contact module, of the cavity, and of the coating.
