A method for manufacturing a semiconductor substrate is provided, which comprises a step of irradiating a single crystal semiconductor substrate with ions to form an embrittlement layer in the single crystal semiconductor substrate, a step of forming a silicon oxide film over the single crystal semiconductor substrate, a step of bonding the single crystal semiconductor substrate and a substrate having an insulating surface with the silicon oxide film interposed therebetween, a step of performing a thermal treatment, and a step of separating the single crystal semiconductor substrate with a single crystal semiconductor layer left over the substrate having the insulating surface. |
