Kn. Vinod et al., FABRICATION OF LOW DEFECT DENSITY 3C-SIC ON SIO2 STRUCTURES USING WAFER BONDING TECHNIQUES, Journal of electronic materials, 27(3), 1998, pp. 17-20
This paper reports on a process to fabricate single-crystal 3C-SiC on
SiO2 structures using a wafer bonding technique. The process uses the
bonding of two polished polysilicon surfaces as a means to transfer a
heteroepitaxial 3C-SiC film grown on a Si wafer to a thermally oxidize
d Si wafer. Transfer yields of up to 80% for 4 inch diameter 3C-SiC fi
lms have been achieved. Homoepitaxial 3C-SiC films grown on the 3C-SiC
on SiO2 structures have a much lower defect density than conventional
3C-SiC on Si films.
