1. A method for manufacturing a direct bonded SOI wafer comprising forming a laminated body having first and second main surfaces by laminating a semiconductor wafer on a laminating side of a support wafer via an oxide film;

  • and forming a thin-film single crystal silicon layer on said support wafer by thinning said semiconductor wafer on the side opposite the laminating side wherein;

    before the laminated body is formed by lamination, only the center part of the semiconductor wafer is polished so as to form a circumferential end edge in a convex shape on the laminating side, and then an oxide film which is an insulating film, is formed on the surface of the semiconductor wafer by thermal oxidation, and the oxide film formed on the circumferential end edge is removed and the oxide film is left on the laminating side except for the circumferential end edge thereby forming a buried oxide layer, and the entire buried oxide film layer is covered by a main surface on the laminating side of said support wafer and said single crystal silicon layer.
