A process for producing a receiver substrate for a semiconductor-on-insulator structure for radiofrequency application comprises the following steps:—providing a semiconductor substrate comprising a base substrate made of monocrystalline material and a charge-trapping layer made of polycrystalline silicon arranged on the base substrate;—oxidizing the charge-trapping layer to form an oxide layer arranged on the charge-trapping layer. The oxidation of the charge-trapping layer is performed at least partly at a temperature lower than or equal to 875° C., in the following manner:—starting the oxidization at a first temperature (T) between 750° C. and 1000° C.;—decreasing the temperature down to a second temperature (T), lower than the first temperature (T), between 750° C. and 875° C.;—continuing the oxidization at the second temperature (T).

Process for producing a receiver substrate for a semiconductor-on-insulator structure for radiofrequency applications and process for producing such a structure

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor on insulator type structure by transfer of a layer from a donor substrate onto a receiver substrate, comprises: a) the supply of the donor substrate and the receiver substrate, b) the formation in the donor substrate of an embrittlement zone delimiting the layer to transfer, c) the bonding of the donor substrate on the receiver substrate, the surface of the donor substrate opposite to the embrittlement zone with respect to the layer to transfer being at the bonding interface, and d) the detachment of the donor substrate along the embrittlement zone. A step of controlled modification of the curvature of the donor substrate and/or the receiver substrate is performed before the bonding step.

Method for manufacturing a semiconductor on insulator type structure by layer transfer

The present disclosure relates to a process for the manufacture of a high resistivity semiconductor substrate, comprising the following stages: providing a first substrate with an in-depth weakened layer; providing a second substrate with a layer of an oxide at the surface; attaching the first substrate to the second substrate so as to form a compound substrate comprising a layer of buried oxide; and cleaving the compound substrate at the level of the weakened layer. The process additionally comprises at least one stage of stabilization, in particular, a stabilization heat treatment, of the second substrate with the layer of oxide before the stage of cleaving at the level of the weakened layer.
