Patent attributes
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor substrate including: epitaxially growing a silicon germanium (SiGe) film on a silicon (Si) substrate by a chemical vapor deposition method; subjecting a heat treatment to the SiGe film at a temperature of not less than 700° C. and not more than 1200° C.; implanting hydrogen ions into a surface of the SiGe film; subjecting a surface activation treatment to a main surface of at least one of the SiGe film and a support substrate; bonding main surfaces of the SiGe film and the support substrate at a temperature of not less than 100° C. and not more than 400° C.; and applying an external impact to a bonding interface between the SiGe film and the support substrate to delaminate the SiGe crystal along a hydrogen ion implanted interface of the SiGe film, thereby forming a SiGe thin film on the main surface of the support substrate.
