Abstract We describe the first MOS transistors fabricated in silicon-on-insulator layers, obtained by liquid phase epitaxial lateral overgrowth of Si over SiO2. Growth is performed around 930°–920° C using indium as a solvent. The layers are therefore p-type and have a doping of 4·1016 cm−3. Electron mobilities of 540 cm2/Vs are obtained in the inversion channel; the threshold voltage of transistors with a gate length of 14.1 μm is 510 mV. Our data demonstrate the applicability of liquid-phase epitaxial Si grown over oxidized Si for future use in three-dimensional integrated-device processing.
