Anthony,

You might want to look at the inventory at Ultrasil

http://www.ultrasil.com/inventory.html

I've found their prices to be quite low (although I haven't purchased SOI
wafers, just silicon), plus they offer a discount for universities.

I'm looking to purchase any surplus 4" SOI wafers that anybody may have for
my PhD research in MEMS at the University of Birmingham in England. I'm
looking for a range of Si thickness from 5 - 300um and a range of oxide
thickness from 0.1 - 5um. If anybody has any SOI wafers that they want to
get rid of please let me know what ever quantity you have (even if it's just
1) and the kind of price your after.

Many thanks

Anthony Cooper
