Method for manufacturing silicon-on-insulator wafer

摘要

A method for manufacturing a SOI wafer includes a step of heat-treating a wafer in a furnace to form an SOI wafer including a silicon support, an insulating layer containing oxide, and a superficial silicon layer arranged in that order and a step of unloading the SOI wafer from the furnace maintained at a temperature of 250° C. to 800° C. to transfer the SOI wafer to an atmosphere containing hydrogen or water. The steps are performed in that order.
