Abstract

SOI(silicon on insulafor) was fabricated through the direct bonding using (100) Si wafer and 4$^{\circ}$off (100) Si wafer to investigate the stacking faults in silicon at the Si/SiO2 oxidized and bonded interface. The treatment time of wafer surface using MSC-1 solution was varied in order to observe the effect of cleaning on bonding characteristics. As the MSC-1 treating time increased surface hydrophilicity was saturated and surface microroughness increased. A comparison of surface hydrophilicity and microroughness with MSC-1 treating time indicates that optimum surface modified condition for time was immersed in MSC-1 for 2 min. The SOI structure directly bonded using (100) Si wafer and 4$^{\circ}$off (100) Si wafer at the room temperature were annealed at 110$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. Then the stacking faults at the bonding and oxidation interface were examined after the debonding. The results show that there were anomalies in the gettering of the stacking faults at the bonded region.
