摘要:
The invention relates to a process for obtaining a thin layer made of a first material on a substrate made of a second material called the final substrate, including the following steps: bonding a thick layer of a first material on one of its main faces on the final substrate at an interface, implantation of gaseous species in the thick layer of first material to create a weakened zone delimiting said thin layer between the interface and the weakened zone, deposit a layer of third material called the self-supporting layer on the thick layer made of first material, fracture within the structure composed of the final substrate, the thick layer of first material and the layer of third material, at the weakened zone to supply the substrate supporting said thin layer.

摘要:
A method for trimming a structure obtained by bonding a first wafer to a second waver on contact faces and thinning the first waver, wherein at least either the first wafer or the second wafer is chamfered and thus exposes the edge of the contact face of the first wafer, wherein the trimming concerns the first wafer. The method includes a) selecting the second wafer from among wafers with a resistance to a chemical etching planned in b) that is sufficient with respect to the first wafer to allow b) to be carried out; b) after bonding the first wafer to the second wafer, chemical etching the edge of the first wafer to form in the first wafer a pedestal resting entirely on the contact face of the second wafer and supporting the remaining of the first wafer; and c) thinning the first wafer until the pedestal is reached and attacked, to provide a thinned part of the first wafer.

摘要:
A method for producing a semiconductor structure that includes at least one useful layer on a substrate. This method includes providing a source substrate with a zone of weakness therein that defines a relatively thick useful layer between the zone of weakness and a front face of the source substrate; bonding the front face of the source substrate to a support substrate and detaching the useful layer from the source substrate at the zone of weakness to transfer the useful layer to the support substrate; implanting atomic species into a free face of the useful layer to a controlled mean implantation depth therein to form a zone of weakness within the useful layer that defines front and rear useful layers, with the rear useful layer contacting the source substrate and the front useful layer containing a greater concentration of defects; bonding a stiffening substrate to the free face of the front useful layer after implantation of the atomic species; and detaching the front useful layer from the rear useful layer along the zone of weakness to form a semiconductor structure comprising the support substrate and the rear useful layer thereon. The structures obtained can be used in the fields of electronics, optoelectronics or optics.
摘要:
The adhesion between two layers, in particular two thin layers of a microelectronic device, is a data item of importance. It was found that the closure ratio of the interface could be used, in non-destructive manner, to determine a measurement of bond energy. A method and a device using a magnitude characteristic of this length are described, in particular using low incidence X-ray reflection and electronic density at the interface.

摘要:
A method for concurrently producing at least a pair of semiconductor structures that each include at least one useful layer on a substrate. The method includes providing an initial structure that includes a useful layer having a front face on a support substrate. Atomic species are implanted into the useful layer to a controlled mean implantation depth to form a zone of weakness within the useful layer that defines first and second useful layers. Next, a stiffening substrate is bonded to the front face of the initial structure. The first useful layer is then detached from the second useful layer along the zone of weakness to obtain a pair of semiconductor structures with a first structure including the stiffening substrate and the first useful layer and a second structure including the support substrate and the second useful layer. The structures obtained can be used in the fields of electronics, optoelectronics or optics.
摘要:
A method for determining a minimum tension compensation stress which will have a membrane of a thickness of less than or equal to one micrometer, secured to a frame, having, in the absence of any external stress, a desired deflection. The membrane can be made as planar as possible in absence of any external stress, and its thickness can be less than or equal to one micrometer.

A heterojunction photovoltaic cell includes at least one crystalline silicon oxide film directly placed onto one of the front or rear faces of a crystalline silicon substrate, between said substrate and a layer of amorphous or microcrystalline silicon. The thin film is intended to enable the passivation of said face of the substrate. The thin film is more particularly obtained by radically oxidizing a surface portion of the substrate, before depositing the layer of amorphous silicon. Moreover, a thin layer of intrinsic or microdoped amorphous silicon can be placed between said think film and the layer of amorphous or microcrystalline silicon.
