AN SUBSTRATEN AUSGEBILDETE HALBLEITERSTRUKTUREN UND VERFAHREN ZUM HERSTELLEN DIESER

摘要

Processes used to transfer semiconductor structures from an initial substrate to a base substrate include bonding the initial substrate with a silicon dioxide layer to a doped silicon structure weakened sufficiently by hydrogen implantation for cleaving. After cleaving, a doped silicon layer remains, burying the silicon dioxide layer between the doped silicon layer and the initial substrate. Semiconductor structures are formed within/on an epitaxial layer disposed on the doped silicon layer forming an intermediate semiconductor structure. A process handle is temporarily bonded to the semiconductor structures for support. The initial substrate is thinned and removed by a mechanical thinning process followed by chemical etching using the buried silicon dioxide layer as an etch stop. The silicon dioxide layer is chemically removed from the doped silicon layer. A base substrate is formed on the doped silicon layer. The process handle is removed leaving the semiconductor structures disposed on the base substrate.
