Abstract

This paper describes on the temperature characteristics of a SDB(silicon-wafer direct bonding) SOI(silicon-on-insulator) Hall sensor. Using the buried oxide $SiO_2$as a dielectrical isolation layer a SDB SOI Hall sensor without pn junction has been fabricated on the Si/ $SiO_2$/Si structure. The Hall voltage and the sensitivity of the implemented SOI Hall sensor show good linearity with respect to the applied magnetic flux density and supplied current. In the temperature range of 25 to 30$0^{\circ}C$ the shifts of TCO(temperature coefficient of the offset voltage) and TCS(temperature coefficient of the product sensitivity) are less than $\pm$6.7$\times$10$_{-3}$ and $\pm$8.2$\times$10$_{-4}$$^{\circ}C$ respectively. These results indicate that the SDB SOI structure has potential for the development of a silicon Hall sensor with a high-sensitivity and high-temperature operation.
