LARGE-AREA III-V SEMICONDUCTOR LAYER TRANSFERRING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18488718 titled 'LARGE-AREA III-V SEMICONDUCTOR LAYER TRANSFERRING METHOD

The large-area III-V semiconductor layer transferring method involves the formation of III-V semiconductor dies on a lower substrate, followed by the creation of dielectric patterns on the dies and exposed areas of the lower substrate. A lower III-V semiconductor layer is then formed on the dielectric patterns and semiconductor dies, with a sacrificial layer and an upper III-V semiconductor layer subsequently added. The process concludes with the bonding of an upper substrate onto the III-V semiconductor layer and the removal of the sacrificial layer.
