摘要:
A synchronous tracking device for a receiver in a direct-spread spectrum communication system in which a carrier frequency and a pseudo noise code for spreading it are coherent. A first circuit tracks the pseudo noise code in the received signal for a predetermined time after synchronous acquisition of the pseudo noise code. A second circuit tracks the pseudo noise code after the first tracking circuit stops tracking, while maintaining a locking condition achieved by the first tracking circuit.

A method for manufacturing SOI wafers is provided which allows the obtaining of a thin SOI layer having uniform in-plane thickness. In this manufacturing method, an oxygen ion implanted layer is first formed on an active layer wafer. This is then laminated to a base wafer with a embedded oxide film interposed therebetween. The active layer wafer side of the laminated wafer is then ground to remove a portion thereof. The remaining surface side of the active layer wafer is removed by polishing or KOH etching to expose the oxygen ion implanted layer. Oxygen ions are implanted to a uniform depth within the plane of the oxygen ion implanted layer in this oxygen ion implanted layer. Subsequently, oxidizing treatment is carried out to form an oxide film on the exposed surface of the oxygen ion implanted layer. Moreover, this oxide film is removed together with the oxygen ion implanted layer by an HF solution. The remaining portion of the active layer wafer serves as a thin SOI layer.

The present invention provides a method of manufacturing a bonded wafer. The method comprises an oxidation step in which an oxide film is formed on at least one surface of a base wafer, a bonding step in which the base wafer on which the oxide film has been formed is bonded to a top wafer to form a bonded wafer, and a thinning step in which the top wafer included in the bonded wafer is thinned. The oxidation step comprises heating the base wafer to a heating temperature ranging from 800 to 1300° C. at a rate of temperature increase ranging from 1 to 300° C./second in an oxidizing atmosphere, and the bonding step is carried out so as to position the oxide film formed in the oxidation step at an interface of the top wafer and the base wafer.

摘要:
A high quality bonded substrate is obtained in which generation of microprotrusions and cracked particles are restricted on a surface of an active layer of the bonded substrate and the surface of the active layer is flattened. A laminated body is formed by overlapping a first semiconductor substrate serving as an active layer onto a second semiconductor substrate serving as a support substrate via an oxide film or without an oxide film; the active layer is formed by forming a thin film from the first semiconductor substrate; and the surface of the active layer is flattened by vapor-phase etching. After forming a thin film from the first semiconductor substrate and before flattening the surface of the active layer by the vapor-phase etching, an organic substance adhering to the surface of the active layer is removed and a native oxide film generated on the surface of the active layer is removed after removing the organic substance.

Furthermore, the technique of sacrificial oxidation can be applied to production of SOI wafers and, thus, a damaged layer formed on the SOI layer surface can be removed and surface roughness can be improved without impairing crystalline integrity and, further, SOI layer thickness can be efficiently reduced.
