Abstract
A method for fabricating silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers which is capable of simplifying the fabrication process while improving the productivity of SOI wafers. In accordance with this method, a first wafer formed with a thermal oxide film is bonded to a second wafer formed with an oxygen ion-implanted region and a hydrogen ion-implanted region. The bonded wafer structure is annealed and then cut along the hydrogen ion-implanted region, so that it is divided into two wafer structures. The wafer structure including the first wafer is annealed to obtain a strengthened chemical coupling property. The wafer structure including the second wafer is annealed to oxidize the oxygen ion-implanted region of the second wafer, thereby forming an oxide film in the second wafer. The first and second wafers are then planarized, thereby forming a pair of SOI wafers.
