BONDED WAFER PROCESS INCORPORATING DIAMOND INSULATOR

摘要

A semiconductor-on-insulator structure incorporating a layer of diamond material and method for preparing such. The structure comprises a layer containing diamond material and having a first surface. A layer of silicon nitride is formed on the first surface and a layer of semiconductor material is positioned over the silicon nitride layer. In one embodiment of the method there is provided a removable deposition surface. A layer of crystalline diamond material is formed on the deposition surface. A first surface of the diamond material is separated from the deposition surface. The structure is useful for formation of integrated circuits thereon.
