ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device and method of making the device in which portions of the device may be completed prior to forming the detector region. The device comprises a substrate, a first insulating layer over the substrate, a first level semiconductor layer over the first insulating layer, a second insulating layer over the semiconductor layer, a metallic contact extending through the second insulating layer and a third insulating layer overlying the contact. A detector region is spaced apart from the contact. The method comprises the steps of forming a first insulating layer over the substrate, forming a semiconductor layer over the first insulating layer, forming a contact through the second insulating layer, forming a third insulating layer over the contact and forming an opening through the first, second and third insulating layers and forming a detector region in the opening.
