    Abstract: Method for producing a composite structure comprising the direct bonding of at least one first wafer with a second wafer, and comprising a step of initiating the propagation of a bonding wave, where the bonding interface between the first and second wafers after the propagation of the bonding wave has a bonding energy of less than or equal to 0.7 J/m2. The step of initiating the propagation of the bonding wave is performed under one or more of the following conditions: placement of the wafers in an environment at a pressure of less than 20 mbar and/or application to one of the two wafers of a mechanical pressure of between 0.1 MPa and 33.3 MPa. The method further comprises, after the step of initiating the propagation of a bonding wave, a step of determining the level of stress induced during bonding of the two wafers, the level of stress being determined on the basis of a stress parameter Ct calculated using the formula Ct=Rc/Ep, where: Rc corresponds to the radius of curvature (in km) of the two-wafer assembly and Ep corresponds to the thickness (in μm) of the two-wafer assembly. The method further comprises a step of validating the bonding when the level of stress Ct determined is greater than or equal to 0.07.

    Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor-on-insulator structure involves providing a donor substrate comprising a weakened zone delimiting a layer to be transferred, providing a receiver substrate, and bonding the donor substrate to the receiver substrate. The layer to be transferred is located on the bonding-interface side. A bonding wave is initiated at a first region on the periphery of the interface, and the wave is propagated toward a second region on the periphery of the interface opposite the first region. The difference in speed of propagation of the bonding wave between a central portion of the interface and a peripheral portion of the interface is controlled such that the speed of propagation of the bonding wave is lower in the central portion than in the peripheral portion. The donor substrate is detached along the weakened zone to transfer the layer to be transferred to the receiver substrate.

    Abstract: A semiconductor-on-insulator substrate for use in RF applications, such as a silicon-on-insulator substrate, comprises a semiconductor top layer, a buried oxide layer and a passivation layer over a support substrate. In addition, a penetration layer is provided between the passivation layer and the silicon support substrate to ensure sufficient high resistivity below RF features and avoid increased migration of dislocations in the support substrate. RF devices may be fabricated on and/or in such a semiconductor-on-insulator substrate.
