ABSTRACT:
A spacer layer is formed on a single-crystal substrate and an epitaxially grown layer composed of a group III-V compound semiconductor layer containing a nitride or the like is further formed on the spacer layer. The epitaxially grown layer is adhered to a recipient substrate. The back surface of the single-crystal substrate is irradiated with a light beam such as a laser beam or a bright line spectrum from a mercury vapor lamp such that the epitaxially grown layer and the single-crystal substrate are separated from each other. Since the forbidden band of the spacer layer is smaller than that of the single-crystal substrate, it is possible to separate the thin semiconductor layer from the substrate by decomposing or fusing the spacer layer, while suppressing the occurrence of a crystal defect or a crack in the epitaxially grown layer.
