Silicon on Insulator (SOI) Wafers

 Our SOI wafers are manufactured from prime ingot or prime slices only. We have the capability to slice, edge grind, LAP, etch, single and double side polished wafers to maximize our capability and flexibility.

SOI Specification

  • Intrinsic/Undoped

Resistivities:

  • Most resistivities available on request, including high resistivity Float Zone and low resistivity CZ

Orientation:

  • <1-0-0> Standard
  • <1-1-1> and <1-1-0> Optional on request

Standard tolerance: ±0.5 degree
Special tolerance: as low as ±0.1 degree

Flat Orientation:

  • All major flats/notches are on the <110> plane: ±0.5 degree
  • Tighter specifications available upon request
  • Semi-standard minor flats are standard on 76.2mm and 100mm

Finish:

  • Double side polished standard
  • Optional backside finishes: nano grind polished or polish with oxide

Coatings:

  • Oxide and nitride can be supplied on both sides of the wafer.

Optional Ion Implanted Buried Layer:

  • A buried layer can be implanted in the active layer at the bonding interface. Please check to see if your desired dopant, dopant concentration, and desired energies are available. This service is provided by an outside contractor.
