Appeal No. 2002-1981 Application No. 09/316,580 (d) a device silicon layer overlying said first dielectric layer, said device silicon layer having an upper surface; (e) a second dielectric layer on said handle die underlying the opposite side of said silicide layer; and (f) interconnected transistors in and at the upper surface of said device silicon layer. 7. A silicon-on insulator integrated circuit comprising: (a) a handle die; (b) a first dielectric layer formed on said handle die (c) a substantially continuous silicide layer formed on said first dielectric layer, said silicide layer having a controlled resistance and providing a diffusion barrier to impurities; (d) a substantially continuous second dielectric layer disposed between said silicide layer and a device silicon layer; (e) trenches extending through said device silicon layer and silicide layer and separating said device silicon layer into islands each with an underlying continuous silicide area; and (f) interconnected transistors in and at an upper surface of said device silicon layer.
