Production, characterization and application of silicon-on-sapphire wafers

Silicon-on-sapphire (SOS) thin film systems have had specific electronic applications because they can reduce noise and current leakage in metal oxide semiconductor transistors. However, there are some issues in producing defect-free SOS wafers. Dislocations, misfit, micro twins and residual stresse...
