    摘要: A method of manufacturing a bonding substrate is disclosed. An oxide film is formed on the surface of at least one of two semiconductor substrates, and the two substrates are brought into close contact with each other via the oxide film. The substrates are heat-treated in an oxidizing atmosphere in order to firmly join the substrates together. Subsequently, an unjoined portion at the periphery of a device-fabricating substrate is completely removed, and the thickness of the device-fabricating substrate is reduced to a desired thickness so as to yield a thin film. The surface of the thin film is then etched through vapor-phase etching in order to make the thickness of the thin film uniform. In the method, the oxide film on the unjoined portion of at least the support substrate is removed before the surface of the thin film is subjected to vapor-phase etching. The method prevents a groove from being formed in the surface of the unjoined portion (terrace portion) of the support substrate (base wafer) even when the surface of the thin film undergoes vapor phase etching.

    摘要: SOI (silicon-on-insulator) substrates are efficiently produced by a method which comprises superposing and bonding at least three single crystal silicon wafers through the medium of a SiO.sub.2 film formed on the surface of each of the wafers and cutting the bonded wafers along planes perpendicular to the direction of superposition thereof. The cutting can be infallibly attained with high dimensional accuracy without entailing such adverse phenomena as the vibration of the blade of a cutting tool by providing at the portions destined to be cut the grooves for guiding the blade of the cutting tool in advance of the cutting work.

    摘要: A method for the determination of the resistivity of an n-type epitaxial layer formed on a silicon substrate is disclosed. This invention resides in either directly determining the true resistivity of a sample by preparing this sample without a natural oxide film which is responsible for the change with the passage of time or indirectly determining the true resistivity of a sample by intentionally forming on the sample a natural oxide film so stable to defy the change with the passage of time and measuring resistivity of this sample.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for obtaining bonded wafers of SOI type, where impurity redistribution in the bulk of the wafers is suppressed and the bonding strength between the wafers is substantially higher compared with that in the prior art. This is accomplished by forming a thermally grown oxide layer on the surface of the thinner one(bond wafer) of two monocrystalline silicon wafers having thicknesses different from each other by more than 50 .mu.m; then superposing the thinner wafer onto the other thicker wafer(base wafer); and finally conducting at least two heat treatments of the wafers at temperatures selected in the range of under 900.degree. C. for a period of time selected in the range of from 0.5 min. to 120 min.

    摘要: The present invention is a CMOS epitaxial silicon wafer (50) on which CMOS integrated circuits (16) can be manufactured, including such circuits that include bipolar components (referred to as "BiCMOS" circuits). The CMOS wafer includes a lightly doped monocrystalline silicon substrate (56) having a major surface (54) that supports a lightly doped monocrystalline epitaxial silicon layer (52). The substrate includes a heavily doped diffused layer (58) extending a short distance (64) into the substrate from the major surface toward a lightly doped bulk portion (66) of the substrate. CMOS integrated circuits manufactured on the epitaxial layer of the CMOS wafer of this invention have a low susceptibility to latch-up. The low susceptibility is provided by the relatively low resistivity of the diffused layer. Since the diffused layer is relatively thin and the bulk portion is lightly doped, the oxygen content of the bulk can be readily measured and controlled.
