Abstract

In this paper a fully integrated manufacturing sequence for flat thick film SOI wafers is presented. By applying low sub-surface damage grinding and combing it with the newly developed polishing process by fixed abrasive pads ,the total removal after mechanical grinding can be strongly reduced. 6" SOI substrates with clearly below 1 µm TTV at an Edge exclusion of below 2 mm are the result. The quality of the surface concerning crystal damage is corroborated by the oxide induced stacking fault method. The wafers show prime quality and the presented sequence provides great benefits and enables the production of highly flat SOI material for future MEMS applications with high demands.
