    摘要: A stressor layer is formed atop a base substrate at a first temperature which induces a first tensile stress in the base substrate that is below a fracture toughness of base substrate. The base substrate and the stressor layer are then brought to a second temperature which is less than the first temperature. The second temperature induces a second tensile stress in the stressor layer which is greater than the first tensile stress and which is sufficient to allow for spalling mode fracture to occur within the base substrate. The base substrate is spalled at the second temperature to form a spalled material layer. Spalling occurs at a fracture depth which is dependent upon the fracture toughness of the base substrate, stress level within the base substrate, and the second tensile stress of the stressor layer induced at the second temperature.

    摘要: Method to (i) introduce additional control into a material spalling process, thus improving both the crack initiation and propagation, and (ii) increase the range of selectable spalling depths are provided. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a stressor layer on a surface of a base substrate at a first temperature which is room temperature. Next, the base substrate including the stressor layer is brought to a second temperature which is less than room temperature. The base substrate is spalled at the second temperature to form a spalled material layer. Thereafter, the spalled material layer is returned to room temperature, i.e., the first temperature.
