Abstract
Description
多結晶材料からなるベース基板、および
前記ベース基板上に設けられている、耐薬品性を有し、単成分かつ高純度のアモルファス層を備えていることを特徴とする。
例えば、図1(a)に示すように、多結晶材料からなるベース基板1の表面1a上にアモルファスの薄層2を形成する。1bは背面である。次いで、アニールすることによりアモルファスの薄層2を緻密化する。次に表面2aを精密研磨加工することによって、きわめて小さい表面粗度を有する接合面3aの形成されたアモルファス層3を設ける。これによってハンドル基板4を得ることができる。
本発明の複合基板は、プロジェクター用発光素子、高周波デバイス、高性能レーザー、パワーデバイス、ロジックICなどに利用できる。
複合基板は、本発明のハンドル基板と、ドナー基板とを含む。
ドナー基板の材質は、特に限定されないが、好ましくは、シリコン、窒化アルミニウム、窒化ガリウム、酸化亜鉛及びダイアモンドからなる群から選択される。
好適な実施形態においては、ベース基板を構成する多結晶材料が、アルミナ、窒化珪素、窒化アルミニウムまたは酸化珪素からなる。これらは緻密性を高くしやすく、半導体汚染のおそれが少ないので、好適である。
本発明においては、多結晶材料からなるベース基板上にアモルファス層を形成する。
ドナー基板との接合を確保できる表面粗度を得るためには、表面層の結晶性が低いこと、即ちアモルファス状態であることが重要である。表面層が結晶性を有していると、CMPによる研磨において、結晶方位に依存した表面の凹凸が発生してしまい、所望の表面粗度Raが得られない。さらに、ベース基板上のアモルファス層のアニールにより耐薬品性を上げることにより、半導体洗浄に適した薬品を用いることができ、アモルファス表面の汚損を低減することができる。
アモルファス層がアルミナからなる場合には、50~150℃/時間の昇温速度にて650℃~1000℃のアニール温度に上昇させ、アニール温度で2~4時間保持とすることが好ましい。
ハンドル基板とドナー基板とを接合することで複合基板を得る。
接合に用いられる技術としては、特に限定される訳ではないが、例えば表面活性化による直接接合や、接着層を用いた基板接合技術が用いられる。

この後、アンモニア過水、塩酸過水、硫酸過水を用いて洗浄を実施した。洗浄後にAMFによる表面粗さ測定を実施したところ。Ra値は0.5nmであり、洗浄前と変化が無いことを確認した。
また表面をTXRF(全反射蛍光X線分析)により汚染レベルを測定した。結果として、Na、Mg、K、Ca、Ti、Cr、Fe、Ni、CuおよびZnの濃度が、それぞれ、1.0×1011atom/cm2以下であることを確認した。
実施例1と同様にしてハンドル基板を作製した。ただし、ベース基板上にアモルファスアルミナ層を形成しなかった。その代わりに、ベース基板上に、プラズマCVD法によって厚さ1.0μmのアモルファス窒化珪素層を形成し、次いで800℃の大気炉にてアニール処理を実施した。他は実施例1と同様とした。
