摘要:
The invention concerns a method of fabricating a composite structure (14) comprising at least one thin film (4) bonded to a support substrate (10), a bonding layer of oxide (12) being formed by deposition between the support substrate (10) and the thin film (4). The thin film and the support substrate have a mean thermal expansion coefficient of 7 X 10 -6 K -1 or more. The bonding layer of oxide (12) is formed by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) of a layer of oxide on the bonding face of the support substrate (10) and/or on the bonding face of the thin film (4). The thin film has a thickness of 5 micrometers or less while the thickness of the layer of oxide (12) is equal to or greater than the thickness of the thin film (4).

The invention relates to a method for fabricating a semiconductor substrate comprising the steps of: providing a silicon on insulator type substrate comprising a base, an insulating layer and a first semiconductor layer, doping the first semiconductor layer to thereby obtain a modified first semiconductor layer, and providing a second semiconductor layer with a different dopant concentration than the modified first semiconductor layer over, in particular on, the modified first semiconductor layer. With this method, an improved dopant concentration profile can be achieved through the various layers which makes the substrates in particular suitable for optoelectronic applications.

A method of producing a heterostructure (200) comprising bonding at least one first substrate (110) having a first thermal expansion coefficient onto a second substrate (120) having a second thermal expansion coefficient, the first thermal expansion coefficient being different from the second thermal expansion coefficient. Prior to bonding, trenches (111) are formed in one of the two substrates from the bonding surface (110a) of the substrate (110). The trenches (111) are filled with a material (130) having a third thermal expansion coefficient lying between the first and second thermal expansion coefficients.
摘要:
Composite substrates are produced that include a strained Ill-nitride material seed layer on a support substrate. Methods of producing the composite substrate include developing a desired lattice strain in the Ill-nitride material to produce a lattice parameter substantially matching a lattice parameter of a device structure to be formed on the composite substrate. The Ill-nitride material may be formed with a Ga polarity or a N polarity. The desired lattice strain may be developed by forming a buffer layer between the Ill-nitride material and a growth substrate, implanting a dopant or introducing an impurity in the Ill-nitride material to modify its lattice parameter, or forming the Ill-nitride material with a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) on a growth substrate with a different CTE.
