  • Abstract
    The field-effect channel electron mobility in 0.5 μm-thick silicon-on-sapphire films is increased by up to 22%, while the back-channel leakage current is decreased 100-fold, following a double recrystallisation by means of Si ion implantation/amorphisation and solid-phase epitaxy. The improved electrical performance correlates with a more than 100-fold reduction in the microtwin density, as measured by X-ray diffraction.
