摘要:
The invention relates to a method for manufacturing compound material wafers, in particular, silicon on insulator type wafers, by providing an initial donor substrate, forming an insulating layer over the initial donor substrate, forming a predetermined splitting area in the initial donor substrate, attaching the initial donor substrate onto a handle substrate and detaching the donor substrate at the predetermined splitting area, thereby transferring a layer of the initial donor substrate onto the handle substrate to form a compound material wafer. In order to be able to reuse the donor substrate more often, the invention proposes to carry out the thermal treatment step to form the insulating layer at a temperature of less than 950° C., in particular, less than 900° C., and preferably at 850° C. The invention also relates to a silicon on insulator type wafer manufactured according to the inventive method.

This invention provides methods for predictively revealing, in bulk silicon substrates, latent crystalline defects in bulk silicon substrates that become apparent only after subsequent processing, e.g., after processing during which multiple layers are split and lifted from the bulk substrates. Preferred predictive methods include a revealing heat treatment of bulk substrates conducted in a non-reducing atmosphere at a temperature in the range from approximately 500° C. to 1300° C. If desired, a further revealing heat treatment or defect enlargement step can be performed to enlarge defects revealed by the first revealing heat treatment.

The invention relates to a method for fabricating a semiconductor on insulator substrate, in particular a silicon on insulator substrate by providing a source substrate, providing a predetermined splitting area inside the source substrate by implanting atomic species, bonding the source substrate to a handle substrate, detaching a remainder of the source substrate from the source-handle component at the predetermined splitting area to thereby transfer a device layer of the source substrate onto the handle substrate, and thinning of the device layer. To obtain semiconductor on insulator substrates with a reduced Secco defect density of less than 100 per cm2 the implanting is carried out with a dose of less than 2.3×106 atoms per cm2 and the thinning is an oxidation step conducted at a temperature of less than 925° C.
