Ibis produces high quality SIMOX-SOI wafers of several different types:

  • Advantox MLD-UT wafers have an ultra-thin top silicon layer, ideally suited for next-generation CMOS devices requiring high quality and extreme SOI uniformity.
  • Advantox MLD wafers are production-proven for high quality, consistently uniform, low cost SOI wafers.
  • SIMOX 400 wafers are thick SOI wafers specifically intended for high voltage, high temperature or radiation-hardened devices.

(1) SOI thickness can be increased by epitaxial growth to 5µm for Advantox MLD, and to 50µm for SIMOX 400. Resulting within-wafer thickness uniformity is <±2.5%. Please contact Ibis for a list of qualified EPI vendors.
(2) For SOI thicknesses <145nm, please contact Ibis for BOX thickness parameters.
(3) For SOI thicknesses <55nm, please contact Ibis for BOX thickness parameters.
