Abstract
A method is provided for preparing multilayer semiconductor structures, such as silicon-on-insulator wafers, having reduced warp and bow. Reduced warp multilayer semiconductor structures are prepared by forming a dielectric structure on the exterior surfaces of a bonded pair of a semiconductor device substrate and a semiconductor handle substrate having an intervening dielectric layer therein. Forming a dielectric layer on the exterior surfaces of the bonded pair offsets stresses that may occur within the bulk of the semiconductor handle substrate due to thermal mismatch between the semiconductor material and the intervening dielectric layer as the structure cools from process temperatures to room temperatures.
