US Patent 7521735 Multiple layer and crystal plane orientation semiconductor substrate

A semiconductor on insulator substrate and a method of fabricating the substrate. The substrate including: a first crystalline semiconductor layer and a second crystalline semiconductor layer; and an insulating layer bonding a bottom surface of the first crystalline semiconductor layer to a top surface of the second crystalline semiconductor layer, a first crystal direction of the first crystalline semiconductor layer aligned relative to a second crystal direction of the second crystalline semiconductor layer, the first crystal direction different from the second crystal direction.
