ABSTRACT:
In a method for manufacturing an integrated circuit arrangement, trenches that define active zones are formed in a substrate. A first insulating layer that fills the narrow trenches is conformally deposited and is structured with a mask and anisotropic etching such that spacers arise at sidewalls of the wide trenches and supporting locations arise in a region of the wide trenches. The surface of the active zones is uncovered by forming a second insulating layer with an essentially planar surface and by a planarizing layer erosion on the basis of chemical-mechanical polishing or conventional dry etching.
