ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a process for fabricating an SOI substrate with no peripheral scratches and with enhanced fabrication efficiency. The present process includes bonding a semiconductor wafer of an active substrate 1 and a semiconductor base wafer 2 to form a bonded wafer 4; surface-grinding the active substrate 1; spin etching the surface-ground active substrate 1; and PACE processing the etched active substrate 1 to form the active substrate into a thin film and simultaneously, to remove the non-bonded peripheral portion of the bonded wafer 4.
