Abstract :
We have conducted an investigation to evaluate the impact of both touch-polish and hydrogen annealing at different temperatures on the roughness, on the SOI film removal, as well as the impact of so processed surface on the integrity of gate oxide thermally grown on it, for SIMOX and BESOI material
