MANUFACTURE METHOD OF A HIGH-RESISTIVITY SILICON HANDLE WAFER FOR ENABLING A FORMATION OF A HYBRID SUBSTRATE STRUCTURE
A manufacture method (100) of a high-resistivity silicon handle wafer (230) for enabling a formation of a hybrid substrate structure (336). The method comprises producing the wafer (212) having a crystal orientation identifier (210), thinning the produced wafer to obtain a thinned wafer (222), providing a surface passivation layer (229) on a front surface (221) of the thinned wafer, and polishing the passivation layer so that the polished front surface (232) of the wafer enables active layer bonding in order to form the hybrid substrate structure. The step of thinning comprises a controlled single-side, fixed abrasive grinding of the produced, crystal orientation identifier-comprised wafer (218) with a chuck arrangement, which eliminates at least majority of an effect of non-circular asymmetry caused by the identifier, in order to manufacture the wafer with a desired submicron total thickness variation for enabling the formation of the hybrid substrate structure.
The application relates to a high-resistivity silicon substrate (100) with a reduced radio frequency loss for a radio frequency integrated passive device. The sub- strate comprising a bulk zone (110) comprising high-resistivity bulk silicon and a preserved sub-surface lattice damage zone (120b) comprising fractured silicon above the bulk zone. The lattice damage zone is processed into the substrate and the preserved lattice damage zone is configured to achieve the RF loss reduction of the substrate by suppressing a parasitic surface conduction.

An implementation of a Czochralski-type crystal growth has been shown and embodied. More particularly, a furnace with suitable insulation and flow arrangement is shown to improve the cost-efficiency of production of crystals. That is achieved by the shown new hot-zone structure, gas flows and the growth process which can decrease the power consumption, increase the lifetime of hot-zone parts and improve the productivity, e.g., by giving means for opening the hot-zone and easily adapting the hot-zone to a new crystal diameter.
