摘要:
An insulating layer is formed on a surface of a semiconductor wafer which is to be a bond substrate and an embrittlement region is formed in the semiconductor wafer by irradiation with accelerated ions. Then, a base substrate and the semiconductor wafer are attached to each other. After that, the semiconductor wafer is divided at the embrittlement region by performing heat treatment and an SOI substrate including a semiconductor layer over the base substrate with the insulating layer interposed therebetween is formed. Before the SOI substrate is formed, heat treatment is performed on the semiconductor wafer at a temperature of higher than or equal to 1100° C. under a non-oxidizing atmosphere in which the concentration of impurities is reduced. In this manner, the planarity of the film formed on the semiconductor wafer when heat treatment is performed can be improved.

An insulating layer is formed over a surface of a semiconductor wafer to be the bond substrate and irradiation with accelerated ions is performed, so that an embrittlement region is formed inside the wafer. Next, this semiconductor wafer and a base substrate such as a glass substrate or a semiconductor wafer are attached to each other. Then, the semiconductor wafer is divided at the embrittlement region by heat treatment, whereby an SOI substrate is manufactured in which a semiconductor layer is provided over the base substrate with the insulating layer interposed therebetween. Before this SOI substrate is manufactured, heat treatment is performed on the semiconductor wafer at 1100° C. or higher under a non-oxidizing atmosphere such as an argon gas atmosphere or a mixed atmosphere of an oxygen gas and a nitrogen gas.

An object of the present invention is to prevent electrical characteristics of circuit elements from being adversely affected by copper diffusion in a semiconductor device having an integrated circuit and an antenna formed over the same substrate, which uses copper plating for the antenna. Another object is to prevent a defect of a semiconductor device due to poor connection between an antenna and an integrated circuit in a semiconductor device having the integrated circuit and the antenna formed over the same substrate. In a semiconductor device having an integrated circuit 100 and an antenna 101 formed over one substrate 102, when a copper plating layer 108 is used for a conductor of the antenna 101, it is possible to prevent copper diffusion to circuit elements and decrease an adverse effect on electrical characteristics of circuit elements due to the copper diffusion because a base layer 107 of the antenna 101 uses a nitride film of a predetermined metal. Moreover, by the use of nickel nitride as a metal nitride for the base layer of the antenna, poor connection between the antenna and the integrated circuit can be decreased.
