    Abstract: First and second wells are formed in a semiconductor substrate. First and second trenches in the first second wells, respectively, each extend vertically and include a central conductor insulated by a first insulating layer. A second insulating layer is formed on a top surface of the semiconductor substrate. The second insulating layer is selectively thinned over the second trench. A polysilicon layer is deposited on the second insulating layer and then lithographically patterned to form: a first polysilicon portion over the first well that is electrically connected to the central conductor of the first trench to form a first capacitor plate, a second capacitor plate formed by the first well; and a second polysilicon portion over the second well forming a floating gate electrode of a floating gate transistor of a memory cell having an access transistor whose control gate is formed by the central conductor of the second trench.

    Abstract: A method for manufacturing an electronic device includes locally implanting ionic species into a first region of a silicon nitride layer and into a first region of an electrically insulating layer located under the first region of the silicon nitride layer. A second region of the silicon nitride layer and a region of the electrically insulating layer located under the second region of the silicon nitride layer are protected from the implantation. The electrically insulating layer is disposed between a semi-conducting substrate and the silicon nitride layer. At least one trench is formed extending into the semi-conducting substrate through the silicon nitride layer and the electrically insulating layer. The trench separates the first region from the second region of the electrically insulating layer. The electrically insulating layer is selectively etched, and the etch rate of the electrically insulating layer in the first region is greater than the etch rate in the second region.
