Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates have become important starting materials for IC and MEMS fabrication. In some cases, it would be beneficial to add another buried material(s) or to replace the silicon dioxide film. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a method to fabricate uniform thin films with well defined thickness. We have studied direct bonding of ALD alumina (Al 2O3) thin films and possibilities to use it as an insulating material in tailored SOI wafers. From bonded wafer pairs the amount of voids and bond strength were measured. We also observed the bonded interface with cross sectional transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It appears that ALD Al2O3 can be used as a buried layer in novel SOI substrates.
