摘要:
A method of fabricating a hybrid substrate by direct bonding of donor and receiver substrates where each substrate has a respective front face and surface, with the front face of the receiver substrate having a semiconductor material near the surface, and the donor substrate including a zone of weakness that defines a layer to be transferred. The method includes preparing the substrate surfaces by exposing the surface of the receiver substrate to a temperature from about 900° C. to about 1200° C. in an inert atmosphere for at least 30 sec; directly bonding together the front faces of the prepared substrates to form a composite substrate; heat treating the composite substrate to increase bonding strength between the front surfaces of the donor and receiver substrates; and transferring the layer from the donor substrate by detaching the remainder of the donor substrate at the zone of weakness.

A method for making substrates for use in optics, electronics, or opto-electronics. The method may include transferring a seed layer onto a receiving substrate and depositing a useful layer onto the seed layer. The thermal expansion coefficient of the receiving support may be identical to or slightly larger than the thermal expansion coefficient of the useful layer and the thermal expansion coefficient of the seed layer may be substantially equal to the thermal expansion coefficient of the receiving support. Preferably, the nucleation layer and the intermediate support have substantially the same chemical composition.
