ABSTRACT:
A method (100) of forming a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer includes forming one or more channels in a top surface of a first wafer (104), and forming an insulator layer on a second wafer (106). The second wafer is treated (108) to generate a structural weakness therein, and the first and second wafers together (110) are then bonded together so that the channels face the insulator layer. A portion of the second wafer is then removed (112) from the bonded first and second wafers at a location corresponding to the structure weakness.
