Patent attributes
In various embodiments, semiconductor structures and methods to manufacture these structures are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes removing a portion of a semiconductor material using an electrochemical etch to form a first cavity, a second cavity, wherein the first cavity is isolated from the second cavity, a first protrusion is between the first cavity and the second cavity, and the semiconductor material comprises silicon. The method further includes performing a thermal oxidation to convert a portion of the silicon of the semiconductor material to silicon dioxide and forming a first dielectric material over the first cavity, over the second cavity, over at least a portion of the semiconductor material, and over at least a portion of the first protrusion. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
