    摘要: A high-yield fabricating method of a semiconductor device including a peeling step is provided.
    A peeling method includes a step of stacking and forming a first material layer and a second material layer over a substrate and a step of separating the first material layer and the second material layer from each other. The second material layer is formed over the substrate with the first material layer therebetween. The first material layer includes a first compound layer in contact with the second material layer and a second compound layer positioned closer to the substrate side than the first compound layer is. The first compound layer has the highest oxygen content among the layers included in the first material layer. The second compound layer has the highest nitrogen content among the layers included in the first material layer. The second material layer includes a resin. In the step of separating, the first material layer and the second material layer are separated from each other by irradiation of an interface between the first material layer and the second material layer or the vicinity of the interface with light.

    摘要: The yield of a manufacturing process of a semiconductor device is increased. The mass productivity of a semiconductor device is increased. A semiconductor device is manufactured by forming a first material layer over a substrate; forming a second material layer over the first material layer; and separating the first material layer and the second material layer from each other; and heating the first material layer and the second material layer that are stacked before the separation. The first material layer includes a gas containing hydrogen, oxygen, or hydrogen and oxygen (e.g., water) in a metal oxide, for example. The second material layer includes a resin. The first material layer and the second material layer are separated from each other by a break of a hydrogen bond. Specifically water is separated out at the interface or near the interface, and then adhesion is reduced due to the water present.

    摘要: A peeling method at low cost with high mass productivity is provided. A resin layer having a thickness greater than or equal to 0.1 μm and less than or equal to 3 μm is formed over a formation substrate using a photosensitive and thermosetting material, a transistor including an oxide semiconductor in a channel formation region is formed over the resin layer, the resin layer is irradiated with light using a linear laser device, and the transistor and the formation substrate are separated from each other. A first region and a second region which is thinner than the first region or an opening can be formed in the resin layer. In the case of forming a conductive layer functioning as an external connection terminal or the like to overlap with the second region or the opening of the resin layer, the conductive layer is exposed.

    摘要: The yield of a manufacturing process of a semiconductor device is increased. The productivity of a semiconductor device is increased. A first material layer is formed over a substrate, a second material layer is formed over the first material layer, and the first material layer and the second material layer are separated from each other, so that a semiconductor device is manufactured. In addition, a stack including the first material layer and the second material layer is preferably heated before the separation. The first material layer includes one or more of hydrogen, oxygen, and water. The first material layer includes a metal oxide, for example. The second material layer includes a resin (e.g., polyimide or acrylic). The first material layer and the second material layer are separated from each other by cutting a hydrogen bond. The first material layer and the second material layer are separated from each other in such a manner that water separated out by heat treatment at an interface between the first material layer and the second material layer or in the vicinity of the interface is irradiated with light.
