Abstract
A functional thin film member is composed of an insulating substrate; a first single crystal thin film layer which contains at least one atom component of Si or Ge, formed on the insulating substrate; an intermediate layer with a cubic crystal system and a lattice constant difference of 15% or less with respect to the lattice constant of the single crystal thin film layer, formed on said single crystal thin film layer; and a second single crystal thin film layer of an oxide formed on the intermediate layer. The first single crystal thin film layer may include crystal orientations suitable for the properties of functional members to be provided above the single crystal thin film layer on an identical plane of the surface of the single crystal thin film layer, and the intermediate layer may be formed in at least one portion of the single crystal thin film layer, corresponding to any of the crystal orientations. In this case, a functional element utilizing the second single crystal thin film layer; and a passive or active device which is formed on the first single crystal thin film layer is electrically or optically connected to the functional element or the insulating substrate.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
