The invention relates to a laminated layer structure that includes a substrate and a stack of a plurality of layers of a material that includes at least two compounds A and B, wherein compound A has a crystalline structure being sufficient to allow a homo- or heteroepitaxial growth of compound A on the substrate, and wherein at least a part of the layers of the stack have a gradient composition AxB(1-xg), with x being a composition parameter within the range of 0 and 1 and with the composition parameter (1-xg) increasing gradually, in particular linearly, over the thickness of the corresponding layer. In order to improve the quality of the laminated layer structure with respect to the surface roughness and dislocation density, the composition parameter at the interface between the layer in the stack with the gradient composition and the subsequent layer in the stack is chosen to be smaller than the composition parameter (1-xg) of the layer with a gradient composition. The invention also relates to a method to fabricate such a laminated layer structure.

摘要:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor heterostructure by first manufacturing a donor wafer having a first substrate with a first in-plane lattice parameter, a spatially graded buffer layer having a second in-plane lattice parameter, and a strained smoothing layer of a semiconductor material having a third in-plane lattice parameter which has a value between that of the first and second lattice parameters. A top layer is formed on the ungraded layer a top layer of a semiconductor material having a top surface, optionally with a superficial layer present on the top surface and having a thickness that is equal to or smaller than 10 nanometers. Next, a handle wafer of a second substrate having an insulator layer thereon is bonded with the donor wafer in such way that (a) the insulator layer of the handle wafer is bonded directly onto the top surface of the top layer of the donor wafer, or (b) the insulator layer of the handle wafer is bonded onto the superficial layer.

A semiconductor workpiece including a substrate, a relaxed buffer layer including a graded portion formed on the substrate, and at least one strained transitional layer within the graded portion of the relaxed buffer layer and method of manufacturing the same. The at least one strained transitional layer reduces an amount of workpiece bow due to differential coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) contraction of the relaxed buffer layer relative to CTE contraction of the substrate
