| 1. A method for fabricating a hybrid orientation substrate comprising steps of:
providing a direct silicon bonding (DSB) wafer having a first substrate with a first crystalline orientation and a second
substrate with a second crystalline orientation directly bonded thereon;
forming and patterning a first blocking layer on the second substrate to define a first region not covered by the first blocking
layer and a second region covered by the first blocking layer;
performing an amorphization process to transform the first region of the second substrate into an amorphized region; and
performing an annealing process to recrystallize the amorphized region into the orientation of the first substrate and simultaneously
to make the second region stressed by the first blocking layer.
