摘要： A stressor layer is applied to a semiconducting stack in order to separate the semiconducting stack at a predetermined depth. Tensile force is applied to the stressor layer, fracturing the semiconducting stack at the predetermined depth and allowing the resulting upper portion of the semiconducting stack to be used in manufacturing a semiconducting end-product (e.g., a light-emitting diode). The resulting lower portion of the semiconducting stack may be reused to grow a new semiconducting stack thereon.

摘要： A spalling process can be employed to generate a fracture at a predetermined depth within a high quality crystalline nitride substrate, such as a bulk GaN substrate. A first crystalline conductive film layer can be separated, along the line of fracture, from the crystalline nitride substrate and subsequently bonded to a layered stack including a traditional lower-cost substrate. If the spalled surface of the first crystalline conductive film layer is exposed in the resulting structure, the structure can act as a substrate on which high quality GaN-based devices can be grown.
