    Abstract: The process comprises the steps of forming, on top of a semiconductor material wafer (10), a holed mask (16) having a lattice structure and comprising a plurality of openings (18) each having a substantially square shape and a side with an inclination of 45° with respect to the flat (110) of the wafer; carrying out an anisotropic etch in TMAH of the wafer (10), using said holed mask (16), thus forming a cavity (20), the cross section of which has the shape of an upside-down isosceles trapezium; and carrying out a chemical vapour deposition (CVD) using TEOS, thus forming a TEOS layer (24) which completely closes the openings of the holed mask (16) and defines a diaphragm (26) overlying the cavity (20) and on which a suspended integrated structure can subsequently be manufactured.

    Abstract: Integrated structure 100 in a chip of semiconductor material comprising a substrate 101 having a first type of conductivity and an epitaxial layer 102 grown on said substrate and having a conductivity of the first type less than the conductivity of the substrate.
    Moreover, the integrated structure comprises a first region 104 and a second region 105 included in the epitaxial layer and having a conductivity opposite to that of the layer, said first and said second regions extending from a surface 103' of the epitaxial layer opposite the substrate into the layer so as to form a first and a second junction with said layer, and means for reducing an injection of current through the layer from said first to said second region when the first junction is directly biased. The integrated structure is characterized by the fact that said means comprise an isolating element 107 located between said first and second regions and extending from said surface of the epitaxial layer substantially at least as far as the substrate.

    Abstract: A varactor (30) has a gate region (6), a first and a second biasing region (5a, 5b) of N + type, embedded in a well (4), and a first and a second extraction region (15a, 15b) of P + type, forming a pair of PN junctions (16a, 16b) with the well (4). The PN junctions (16a, 16b) are inversely biased and extract charge accumulating in the well (4), below the gate region (6), when the gate region (6) is biased to a lower voltage (V G ) than a predetermined threshold value.
