The pseudo MOSFET measurement technique has been a simple and rapid method for characterization of SOI wafers without any device fabrication process. We adopted the pseudo MOSFET technique to examine the surface silicon film thickness dependence of electrical properties of SOI wafer. The measurements showed that turn-on voltage increased and electron mobility decreased as the SOI film thickness was reduced in the SOI film thickness of less than 20 nm region.

This paper describes on the fabrication of a SOI substrate by SDB technology and electrochemical etch-stop. The surface of the thinned SDB SOI substrate is more uniform than that of grinding or polishing by mechanical method, and this process was found to be very accurate method for SOI thickness control. During electrochemical etch-stop, leakage current versus voltage curves were measured for analysis of the open current potential (OCP) point, the passivation potential (PP) point and anodic passivation potential. The surface roughness and the controlled thickness selectivity of the fabricated a SDB SOI substrate were evaluated by using AFM and SEM, respectively.

Trench-Gate SOI LIGBT with improved latch-up capability has been proposed and verified by MEDICI simulation. The new SOI LIGBT exhibits 6 time larger latch-up capability of the new device is almost preserved independent of lifetime. the large latch-up capability of the new SOI LIGBT may be realized due to the fact that the hole current in the new device would bypass through the shorted cathode contact without passing the p-well region under the n+ cathode. Forward voltage drop is increased by 25% when a epi thickness is 6$\mu$m. However, the increase of the forward voltage is negligible when the epi thickness is increased to 10$\mu$m. It is found that the swithcing time of the new device is almost equal to the conventional devices. Evaluated breakdown voltage of proposed SOILIGBT is 250 V and that of the conventional SOI LIGBT is 240 V, where the thickness of the vuried oxide and n- epi is 3$\mu$m and 6$\mu$m, respectively.

We investigated the characteristics of UTB-SOI pMOSFETs with SOI thickness($T_{SOI}$) ranging from 10 nm to 1 nm and evaluated the dependence of electrical characteristics on the silicon surface orientation. As a result, it is found that the subthreshold characteristics of (100)-surface UTB-SOI pMOSFETs were superior to (110)-surface. However, the hole mobility of (110)-surface were larger than that of (100)-surface. Especially, the enhancement of effective hole mobility at the effective field of 0.1 MV/cm was observed from 3-nm to 5-nm SOI thickness range.

SOI(Silicon On lnsulator) technology is many advantages in the gabrication of MOS(Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) and CMOS(Complementary MOS) structures. These include high speed, lower dynamic power consumption,greater packing density, increased radiation tolearence et al. In smiple form of bonded SOL wafer manufacturing, creation of a bonded SOI structure involves oxidizing at least one of the mirror polished silicon surfaces, cleaning the oxidized surface and the surface of the layer to which it will be bonded,bringing the two cleanded surfaces together in close physical proximity, allowing the subsequent room temperature bonding to proceed to completion, and than following this room temperature joining with some form of heat treatment step,and device wafer is thinned to the target thickness. This paper has been performed to investigate the possibility of the bonded SOI wafer manufacturing Especially, we focused on the bonding quality and thinning method. Finally,we achieved the bonded SOI wafer that Si layer thickness is below 3 .mu. m and average roughness is below 5.angs.

Combination of SDB(Si-wafer Direct Bonding) and electrochemical etch-stop in TMAH anisotropic etchant can be used to create a variety of MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System). Especially, fabrication of SDB SOI structures using electrochemical etch-stop is accurate method to fabrication of 3D(three-dimensional) microstructures. This paper describes on the fabrication of SDB SOI structures with sealed cavity for MEMS applications and thickness control of active layer on the SDB SOI structure by electrochemical etch-stop. The flatness of fabricated SDB SOI structure is very uniform and can be improved by addition of TMAH to IPA and pyrazine.

Polysilicon on insulator has been recrystallized by zone melting recrystallization method with graphite strip heaters. Experiments are performed with non-seed SOI structures. When the capping layer thickness of Si$\_$3/N$\_$4//SiO$\_$2/ is 2.0.mu.m, grain boundaries are about 120.mu.m spacing and protrusions reduced. After the seed SOI films are annealed at 1100.deg. C in NH$\_$3/ ambient for 3 hours, the recrystallized silicon surface has convex shape. After ZMR process, the tensile stress is 2.49*10$\^$9/dyn/cm$\^$2/ and 3.74*10$\^$9/dyn/cm$\^$2/ in the seed edge and seed center regions. The phenomenon of convex shape and tensile stress difference are completely eliminated by using the PSG/SiO$\_$2/ capping layer. The characterization of SOI films are showed that the SOI films are improved in wetting properties. N channel SOI MOSFET has been fabricated to investigate the electrical characteristics of the recrystallized SOI films. In the 0.7.mu.m thickness SOI MOSFET, kink effects due to the floating substrate occur and the electron mobility was calculated from the measured g$\_$m/ characteristics, which is about 589cm$\^$2//V.s. The recrystallized SOI films are shown to be a good single crystal silicon.

This paper describes on thinning SDB SOI substrates by SDB technology and Electro-chemical etch-stop. The surface of the fabricated SDB SOI substrates is more uniform than that grinding or polishing by mechanical method, and this process is possible to accurate SOI thickness control. During Electrochemical etch-stop, leakage current versus voltage curves were measured for analysis of the open current potential (OCP) point and the passivation potential (PP) poin and determinated to anodic passivation potential. The surface roughness and selectively controlled thickness of the fabricated SOI substrates were analyzed by using AFM and SEM, respectively.
