SiGe (SGOI) substrate on insulator, Ge (GOI) substrate on insulator manufacturing method, semiconductor wafer, and semiconductor structure

摘要

A method for fabricating germanium-on-insulator (GOI) substrate materials, the GOI substrate materials produced by the method and various structures that can include at least the GOI substrate materials of the present invention are provided. The GOI substrate material include at least a substrate, a buried insulator layer located atop the substrate, and a Ge-containing layer, preferably pure Ge, located atop the buried insulator layer. In the GOI substrate materials of the present invention, the Ge-containing layer may also be referred to as the GOI film. The GOI film is the layer of the inventive substrate material in which devices can be formed.
