Abstract

Raman spectroscopy is used to determine built-in stresses in silicon on sapphire (SOS) devices. The method is direct, nondestructive and can be applied at various temperatures. For epitaxial silicon films on sapphire substrates a built-in stress of 7.0±0.3 kbar at room temperature and 8.7±0.3 kbar at liquid nitrogen temperature was measured.
