    摘要: Methods for producing a multilayer semiconductor structure are described. In an embodiment, the method includes providing a support substrate made of a first semiconductor material having a first lattice parameter, and depositing a layer of a second semiconductor material having a second lattice parameter that is substantially different than the first lattice parameter onto the support substrate. In this manner, an intermediate structure is formed that has an interface between the first and second semiconductor materials, and the depositing is conducted such that most of the defects in the deposited layer are confined to an adaptation layer located in a region adjacent to the interface. The method also includes creating a zone of weakness in the intermediate structure, bonding the second semiconductor material layer to a target substrate, detaching the support substrate at the zone of weakness to obtain a multilayer semiconductor structure having an exposed surface where detached, and treating the exposed surface to assure that the adaptation layer is fully removed in order to obtain a relaxed thin layer of the second semiconductor material having a high quality surface.

These structures include a substrate; an oxide layer upon the substrate; a silicon carbide (SiC) layer upon the oxide layer, and a strained layer of a semiconductor material in a strained state upon the silicon carbide layer, or a matching layer upon the donor substrate that is made from a material that induces strain in subsequent epitaxially grown layers thereon; a strained layer of a semiconductor material of defined thickness in a strained state; and an insulating or semi-insulating layer upon the strained layer in a thickness that retains the strained state of the strained layer.

A first wafer having a strained layer of a semiconductor material on a matching layer is provided, with the semiconductor material having a first lattice parameter corresponding to a relaxed state and a first critical thickness corresponding to the first strained state, and the first thickness is less than the first critical thickness, The matching layer has a matching lattice parameter that is sufficiently different than the first lattice parameter to retain the strained layer in the strained state, The strained layer is transferred to a receiving substrate selected to provide the transferred strained layer with a second critical thickness that is greater than the first critical thickness, and additional semiconductor material is grown on the transferred strained layer to provide a second thickness that is greater than the first critical thickness and less than the second critical thickness, The invention also relates to the semiconductor structures that can be produced by the process.

    摘要: Methods for transferring a useful layer of silicon carbide to a receiving substrate are described. In an embodiment, the technique includes implanting at least H+ ions through a front face of a source substrate of silicon carbide with an implantation energy E greater than or equal to 95 keV and an implantation dose D chosen to form an optimal weakened zone near a mean implantation depth, the optimal weakened zone defining the useful layer and a remainder portion of the source substrate. The method also includes bonding the front face of the source substrate to a contact face of the receiving substrate, and detaching the useful layer from the remainder portion of the source substrate along the weakened zone while minimizing or avoiding forming an excess zone of silicon carbide material at the periphery of the useful layer that was not transferred to the receiving substrate during detachment. Such a method facilitates recycling the remainder portion of the source substrate.
