A method for fabricating a flexible device is provided. The method includes forming a sacrificial layer on a substrate; and forming a reflective layer to reflect a laser for subsequently de-bonding the sacrificial layer from the rigid substrate back to the sacrificial layer to reduce required de-bonding energy of the laser over at least a portion of the rigid substrate. Further, the method includes forming a flexible device over the reflective layer; and separating the substrate from the sacrificial layer by irradiating the sacrificial layer using the laser.
