Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for separating semiconductor devices from a substrate using a nanoporous structure, wherein electrochemical etching is carried out in the absence of a surface metal layer, then the surface metal layer is deposited, and then a GaN thin film is transferred onto a metal wafer by means of wafer bonding and lift-off. The method for separating the semiconductor devices using a nanoporous structure includes the steps of: growing a first n-type nitride layer on the substrate; growing a dielectric layer on the first n-type nitride layer; forming a nanoporous structure in the first n-type nitride layer by means of electrochemical etching; re-growing a second n-type nitride layer on the first n-type nitride layer so as to form a second n-type nitride layer containing the dielectric layer; growing a multi-quantum well structure and a p-type nitride layer on the second n-type nitride layer for bonding with a conductive substrate; and separating the semiconductor devices from the substrate through selective HF etching of the dielectric layer.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention provide a substrate recycling method and a recycled substrate. The method includes separating a substrate having a first surface from an epitaxial layer, performing a first etching of the first surface using electrochemical etching, and performing, after the first etching, a second etching of the first surface using chemical etching, dry etching, or performing, after the first etching, chemical mechanical polishing of the first surface.
