摘要:
A method of detaching a thin film from a source substrate comprises the steps of implanting ions or gaseous species in the source substrate so as to form therein a buried zone weakened by the presence of defects; and splitting in the weakened zone leading to the detachment of the thin film from the source substrate. Two species are implanted of which one is adapted to form defects and the other is adapted to occupy those defects, the detachment being made at a temperature lower than that for which detachment could be obtained with solely the dose of the first species.
摘要:
A method for self-supported transfer of a fine layer, in which at least one species of ions is implanted in a source-substrate at a specified depth in relation to the surface of the source-substrate. A stiffener is applied in intimate contact with the source-substrate and the source-substrate undergoes a heat treatment at a specified temperature during a specified period of time in order to create an embrittled buried area substantially at the specified depth without causing a thin layer, defined between the surface and the embrittled buried layer in relation to the remainder of the source-substrate, to become thermally detached. A controlled localized energy pulse is applied to the source-substrate in order to cause the self-supported detachment of the thin layer.

The invention relates to a method of catastrophic transfer of a thin film including implanting in a source substrate a first species of ions or gas at a given depth and a second species of ions or gas, the first species being adapted to generate defects and the second species being adapted to occupy those defects. The process further includes applying a stiffener in intimate contact with the source substrate, applying a heat treatment to that source substrate, at a given temperature for a given time, so as to create, substantially at the given depth, a buried weakened zone, without initiating the thermal splitting of a thin film, and applying a localized amount of energy, for example mechanical stresses, to that source substrate so as to provoke the catastrophic splitting of a thin film, the thin film having a substantially planar face opposite to the face surface of the source substrate.

The invention relates to structures useful for the manufacture of electronic components, which comprise a substrate, a strain holding layer, and a layer of a strained semiconducting material. These structures are particularly useful where islands are later formed in the strained semiconducting material because the strain holding layer limits relaxation of stress in the islands. This invention also relates to processes for making a these structures.

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a wafer in which a heterogeneous material compound is detached at a pre-determined detachment area of the compound, and the compound is subject to a thermal treatment. It is the object of the present invention to provide an easy and effective method of detachment a heterogeneous material compound with a reduced risk of an undefined breaking of the compound. The object is solved by a method wherein the thermal treatment includes annealing the compound, where the annealing is stopped before a detachment of the compound, and an irradiation of the compound with photons in order to obtain a detachment of the compound at the pre-determined detachment area.

The invention relates to semiconductor-on-insulator structure and its method of manufacture. This structure includes a substrate, a thin, useful surface layer and an insulating layer positioned between the substrate and surface layer. The insulating layer is at least one dielectric layer of a high k material having a permittivity that is higher than that of silicon dioxide and a capacitance that is substantially equivalent to that of a layer of silicon dioxide having a thickness of less than or equal to 30 nm.

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a wafer comprising a single crystalline bulk substrate of a first material and at least one epitaxial layer of a second material which has a lattice different from the lattice of the first material. The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a wafer in which a layer which is lattice-mismatched with the substrate can be grown on the substrate with a high effectiveness and high quality at a low cost. A roughening step is included for roughening the surface of the bulk substrate and a growing step is included for growing the second material on the rough surface with a reduced number of threading dislocations and an enhanced strain relaxation compared to a second material that is epitaxially grown on a polished surface.

The invention provides a method of producing a structure of a thin layer of semiconductor material on a support substrate. The thin layer is obtained from a donor substrate and includes an upper layer of semiconductor material. The method includes forming on the upper layer a bonding layer of a material that accepts diffusion from an element of the material of the upper layer, bonding the donor substrate from the side on which the bonding layer is formed on the upper layer to the support substrate, and diffusing the element from the upper layer into the bonding layer to homogenize the concentration of the element in the bonding layer and the upper layer. The result is that the thin layer of the structure is joined by the bonding layer to the upper layer.
