Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'une couche de silicium monocristalline qui est séparée d'un substrat de silicium par une couche d'isolation noyée. Outre les opérations de base mises en ÷uvre dans un procédé SIMOX, qui servent à produire une structure en plaquettes SIMOX avec une couche d'oxyde noyée et une couche de silicium située sur cette dernière, les étapes suivantes sont prévues selon l'invention: fabrication d'une couche diélectrique sur la plaquette au silicium SIMOX et/ou sur une plaquette-support de silicium; connexion de ces plaquettes de manière à ce qu'elles soient reliées les unes aux autres au niveau de leurs faces avant; application d'une couche de protection contre l'attaque chimique sur la plaquette-support de silicium et attaque chimique à l'arrière de la plaquette de silicium-SIMOX jusqu'à la couche d'oxyde-SIMOX noyée.
