摘要:
In the ozone-activated deposition of insulating layers, different growth rates can be achieved on differently constituted surfaces. When the surfaces of the structured silicon substrates lying at different levels are differently constituted or, respectively, are intentionally varied such that the SiO.sub.2 insulating layer grows more slowly on the higher surfaces than on the more deeply disposed surfaces and when deposition is carried out until the surfaces of the rapidly growing and slowly growing layer regions form a step-free, planar level, a local and global planarization is achieved.
