Abstract
A wafer structure and a method of making the same, upon which semiconductor devices may be formed, comprises first and second wafers. The first wafer comprises a first substrate having a thin oxide layer formed on a bottom surface thereof, the first substrate having a characteristic thermal expansion coefficient. The second wafer comprises a second substrate having an insulation layer formed on a top surface thereof, the insulation layer having a characteristic thermal expansion coefficient substantially matched with the characteristic thermal expansion coefficient of the first substrate and further having a high thermal conductivity. The second wafer further comprises a thin oxide layer formed on a top surface of the insulation layer, wherein the first thin oxide layer of the first wafer is bonded to the second thin oxide layer of the second wafer.
