摘要:
For manufacturing an SOI substrate, the following steps are carried out: providing a wafer of semiconductor material; forming, inside the wafer, a plurality of passages forming a labyrinthine cavity and laterally delimiting a plurality of pillars of semiconductor material; and oxidizing the pillars of semiconductor material to form a buried insulating layer. For forming the labyrinthine cavity, a trench is first formed in a substrate; an epitaxial layer is grown, which closes the trench at the top; the wafer is annealed so as to deform the pillars and cause them to assume a minimum-energy handlebar-like shape, and a peripheral portion of the wafer is removed to reach the labyrinthine cavity, and side inlet openings are formed in the labyrinthine cavity. Oxidation is performed by feeding an oxidizing fluid through the side inlet openings.
摘要:
A process for manufacturing a SOI wafer with buried oxide regions without cusps that includes forming, in a wafer of monocrystalline semiconductor material, trenches extending between, and delimiting laterally, protruding regions; forming masking regions, implanted with nitrogen ions, the masking regions surrounding completely the tips of the protruding regions; and forming retarding regions on the bottom of the trenches, wherein nitrogen is implanted at a lower dose than the masking regions. A thermal oxidation is then carried out and starts at the bottom portion of the protruding regions and then proceeds downwards; thereby, a continuous region of buried oxide is formed and is overlaid by non-oxidized regions corresponding to the tips of the protruding regions and forming nucleus regions for a subsequent epitaxial growth. The masking regions and the retarding regions are formed through two successive implants, including an angle implant, wherein the protruding regions shield the bottom portions of the adjacent protruding regions, as well as the bottom of the trenches, and a vertical implant is made perpendicularly to the wafer.

Method for manufacturing electromagnetic radiation reflecting devices, said method comprising the steps of: a) providing a silicon substrate defined by at least one first free surface, b) forming on said first surface a layer of protective material provided with an opening which exposes a region of the first free surface, and c)etching the region of the free surface by means of an anisotropic agent to remove at least one portion of the substrate and define a second free surface of the substrate inclined in relation to said first surface. Furthermore, said first free surface is parallel to the crystalline planes {110} of silicon substrate and said step (c) comprises a progressing step of the anisotropic agent such that the second free surface resulting from the etching step is parallel to the planes {100} of said substrate.

A process for manufacturing a suspended structure of semiconductor material envisages the steps of: providing a monolithic body of semiconductor material having a front face; forming a buried cavity within the monolithic body, extending at a distance from the front face and delimiting, with the front face, a surface region of the monolithic body, said surface region having a first thickness; carrying out a thickening thermal treatment such as to cause a migration of semiconductor material of the monolithic body towards the surface region and thus form a suspended structure above the buried cavity, the suspended structure having a second thickness greater than the first thickness. The thickening thermal treatment is an annealing treatment.

A process for manufacturing an integrated differential pressure sensor includes forming, in a monolithic body of semiconductor material having a first face and a second face, a cavity extending at a distance from the first face and delimiting therewith a flexible membrane, forming an access passage in fluid communication with the cavity, and forming, in the flexible membrane, at least one transduction element configured so as to convert a deformation of the flexible membrane into electrical signals. The cavity is formed in a position set at a distance from the second face and delimits, together with the second face, a portion of the monolithic body. In order to form the access passage, the monolithic body is etched so as to form an access trench extending through it.
