<p>This invention relates to improvements in the SOS technology including the so-called laser annealing processing. According to this invention, a semiconductor layer of an SOS structure consists of the three layers of an interface layer made up of twins, a seed crystalline layer and a re-grown layer far thicker than the preceding two layers when viewed from the side of an insulating substrate. The re-grown layer is formed in such a way that a semiconductor layer deposited on the insulating substrate is irradiated with an electromagnetic wave, for example, pulsed ruby laser beam, which is absorbed substantially uniformly by a portion except the interface layer and the seed crystalline layer. According to this invention, the quality of the re-grown layer is improved, and the mobility of carriers is enhanced. As a result, the operating speed of a semiconductor device employing the SOS structure is raised, and the leakage current is reduced.</p> |
