ABSTRACT:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor-on-insulator semiconductor wafer is described that includes providing first and second semiconductor substrates. A first insulating layer is formed on the first substrate with a first predetermined stress and a second insulating layer is formed on the second substrate with a second predetermined stress different than the first predetermined stress. The first insulating layer is bonded to the second insulating layer to form a composite insulating layer bonding the first substrate to the second substrate and a portion of the one substrate is removed to form a thin crystalline active layer on the composite insulating layer. The first and second insulating layers are formed with different stresses to provide a desired composite stress, which can be any stress from compressive to unstressed to tensile, depending upon the desired application.
