Abstract: One exemplary aspect relates to a process and apparatus for selectively changing adhesion strength between a flexible substrate and a carrier at specific locations to facilitate shipping and subsequent removal of the flexible substrate from the carrier. The process includes providing a flexible substrate comprising a plurality of integrated circuits thereon providing a carrier for the flexible substrate and adhering the flexible substrate to the carrier by creating an interface between the flexible substrate and the carrier. The process further includes changing the adhesion force between the flexible substrate and the carrier at selected locations by non-uniform treatment of the interface between the flexible substrate and the carrier with an electromagnetic radiation source (e.g. a laser, flashlamp, high powered LED, an infrared radiation source or the like) so as to decrease or increase the adhesion force between a portion of the flexible substrate and the carrier at the selected location.

Abstract: An electronic circuit is described, comprising: a first power rail; a second power rail; and a field effect transistor, FET, the FET comprising: a first terminal coupled directly or indirectly to the first power rail; a second terminal coupled directly or indirectly to the second power rail; a channel of semiconductive material connecting the first terminal to the second terminal; a gate terminal to which a voltage may be applied to control a conductivity of the channel, the channel providing a conduction path from the first terminal to the second terminal; and a gate dielectric arranged to insulate the gate terminal from the channel. The circuit further comprises a layer or other body of dielectric material, the gate dielectric being a first portion of the layer or other body of dielectric material. The first power rail comprises a first rail portion arranged on a first side of a second portion of the layer or other body of dielectric material, and the second power rail comprises a second rail portion arranged on a second side of the second portion of the layer or other body of dielectric material, the second side being opposite the first side. The second portion of the layer or other body of dielectric material separates the first and second rail portions and with the first and second rail portions provides a capacitance to the circuit.
