ABSTRACT:
A method for detaching a layer from a wafer. A weakened zone is created in the wafer to define the layer to be detached and a remainder portion of the wafer, such that the weakened zone includes a main region and a localized super-weakened region that is more weakened than the main region. Detachment of the layer from the remainder portion of the wafer is initiated at the super-weakened region such that the detachment properties to the main region to detach the layer from the remainder portion.
