摘要:
In a manufacturing method of manufacturing a silicon on insulator (SOI) wafer, a single crystal silicon whose surface is an N region on an outer side of an OSF region, is grown and sliced to fabricate an N region single crystal silicon. An ion injection layer is formed within the N region single crystal silicon wafer by injecting a hydrogen ion or a rare gas ion from a surface of the N region single crystal silicon wafer; the ion injection surface of the N region single crystal silicon wafer and/or a surface of the transparent insulation substrate is processed using plasma and/or ozone. The ion injection surface is bonded to the surface of the transparent insulation substrate by bringing them into close contact with each other at room temperature. An SOI layer is formed by mechanically peeling the single crystal silicon wafer.

A method for heat-treating an SOI wafer in a reducing atmosphere, wherein the SOI wafer is heat-treated through use of a rapid thermal annealer at a temperature within the range of 1100° C. to 1300° C. for 1 sec to 60 sec. The reducing atmosphere is preferably an atmosphere of 100% hydrogen or a mixed gas atmosphere containing hydrogen and argon. The heat treatment is preferably performed for 1 sec to 30 sec. The method eliminates COPs in an SOI layer of an SOI wafer in accordance with a hydrogen annealing method, while preventing etching of the SOI layer and a buried oxide layer.

Proposed is an improvement in the process for the preparation of an SOI wafer comprising the steps of: forming an oxidized surface film on the mirror-polished surface of a first mirror-polished semiconductor silicon wafer as the base wafer; forming a doped layer with a dopant in a high concentration on the mirror-polished surface of a second mirror-polished semiconductor silicon wafer as the bond wafer; bringing the base wafer and the bond wafer into contact each with the other at the oxidized surface film and the doped layer; and subjecting the thus contacted semiconductor silicon wafers to a heat treatment to effect integral bonding thereof into a precursor of an SOI wafer. The improvement of the invention is accomplished by polishing the surface of the doped layer on the bond wafer before the base wafer and the bond wafer are joined by contacting at the oxidized surface film and the doped layer so that a great improvement can be obtained in the bonding strength between layers.

摘要:
In order to adjust thickness of a bonded silicon single crystal film 15 depending of thickness of an SOI layer 5 to be obtained, depth of formation d1+tx of a separatory ion implanted layer 4, measured from a first main surface J, in the separatory ion implanted layer formation step is adjusted through energy of the ion implantation. Dose of the ion implantation is set smaller as the depth of formation measured from the first main surface J becomes smaller. A smaller dose results in a smaller surface roughness of the separation surface, and makes it possible to reduce polishing stock removal of the separation surface of the bonded silicon single crystal film in the planarization step. Uniformity in the thickness of the SOI layer can consequently be improved even for the case where a thin SOI layer has to be formed. The present invention is therefore successful in providing a method of fabricating an SOI wafer capable of suppressing variations in the intra-wafer and inter-wafer uniformity of the thickness of the SOI layer to a sufficiently low level, even for the case where a required level of the thickness of the SOI layer is extremely small.
