Formation of patterned silicon-on-insulator (SOI)/silicon-on-nothing (SON) composite structure by porous Si engineering

摘要

A patterned SOI/SON composite structure and methods of forming the same are provided. In the SOI/SON composite structure, the patterned SOI/SON structures are sandwiched between a Si over-layer and a semiconductor substrate. The method of forming the patterned SOI/SON composite structure includes shared processing steps wherein the SOI and SON structure are formed together. The present invention also provides a method of forming a composite structure which includes buried conductive/SON structures as well as a method of forming a composite structure including only buried void planes.
