Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for forming a narrow thermally oxidized silicon side isolation region in a semiconductor substrate and a MOS or CMOS device. SOLUTION: After a process has been performed for removing bottom sections of openings 20 of a silicon nitride layer 16 and an amorphous polysilicon layer 14, the exposed parts are removed by using the silicon nitride layer 16 as a mask. Then narrow oxidized silicon side isolation regions are grown in the surface of a semiconductor substrate by heating through an opening formed via an oxynitride layer 12. Then the semiconductor substrate is left in such a state that the substrate has the narrow oxidized silicon side isolation regions and the remaining surface section of the substrate is exposed by removing the parts of the silicon nitride layer 16, the amorphous polysilicon layer 14, and the oxynitride layer 12. Following this, a MOS semiconductor device is formed between the narrow oxidized silicon side isolation regions formed in the semiconductor substrate.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to functional pathway configurations at the interfaces between integrated circuits (ICs) and the circuit assemblies with which the ICs communicate. More particularly, the present invention relates generally to the functional pathway configuration at the interface between a digital device and a radio frequency device (wireless RF digital device), and the circuitry of a system including the packaged devices. Even more particularly, the present invention relates to a wireless radio frequency digital device functional pathway configuration for the interface between the wireless radio frequency digital device and a system in which the wireless radio frequency digital device is embedded.
