ABSTRACT:
A method for preparing a semiconductor member comprises process of making a porous Si substrate and then forming a non-porous Si monocrystalline layer on the porous Si substrate; primary bonding process of bonding the porous Si substrate and an insulating substrate via the non-porous Si monocrystalline layer; etching process of etching the porous Si to remove the porous Si by chemical etching after the primary bonding process; and secondary bonding process of strengthening the primary bonding after the etching process.
