Abstract
Silicon on insulator structures having a high resistivity region in the handle wafer of the silicon on insulator structure are disclosed. Methods for producing such silicon on insulator structures are also provided. Exemplary methods involve creating a non-uniform thermal donor profile and/or modifying the dopant profile of the handle wafer to create a new resistivity profile in the handle wafer. Methods may involve one or more SOI manufacturing steps or electronic device (e.g., RF device) manufacturing steps.
