Methods of Fabricating Silicon on Insulator (SOI) Wafers

摘要

Methods of fabricating SOI wafers are provided including providing a donor wafer and forming a hydrogen ion implantation layer in the donor wafer. A circumference portion of one side of the donor wafer is recessed to form a height difference. The one side of the donor wafer and a handle wafer are bonded to form a bonded wafer. The bonded wafer is heat treated to separate the bonded wafer along the hydrogen ion implantation layer.
