Frontiers of silicon-on-insulator

Abstract: Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers are precisely engineered multilayer semiconductor/dielectric structures that provide new functionality for advanced Si devices. After more than three decades of materials research and device studies, SOI wafers have entered into the mainstream of semiconductor electronics. SOI technology offers significant advantages in design, fabrication, and performance of many semiconductor circuits. It also improves prospects for extending Si devices into the nanometer region (<10 nm channel length). In this article, we discuss methods of forming SOI wafers, their physical properties, and the latest improvements in controlling the structure parameters. We also describe devices that take advantage of SOI, and consider their electrical characteristics.

Heterogeneous Three-Dimensional Electronics by Use of Printed Semiconductor Nanomaterials

Abstract: We developed a simple approach to combine broad classes of dissimilar materials into heterogeneously integrated electronic systems with two- or three-dimensional layouts. The process begins with the synthesis of different semiconductor nanomaterials, such as single-walled carbon nanotubes and single-crystal micro- and nanoscale wires and ribbons of gallium nitride, silicon, and gallium arsenide on separate substrates. Repeated application of an additive, transfer printing process that uses soft stamps with these substrates as donors, followed by device and interconnect formation, yields high-performance heterogeneously integrated electronics that incorporate any combination of semiconductor nanomaterials on rigid or flexible device substrates. This versatile methodology can produce a wide range of unusual electronic systems that would be impossible to achieve with other techniques.
