Abstract
Techniques for integrating spalling into layer transfer processes involving optical device semiconductor materials are provided. In one aspect, a layer transfer method for an optical device semiconductor material includes forming the optical device semiconductor material on a first substrate; depositing a metal stressor layer on top of the optical device semiconductor material; attaching a first handle layer to the metal stressor layer; removing the optical device semiconductor material from the first substrate by pulling the first handle layer away from the first substrate; attaching a second handle layer to the optical device semiconductor material; removing the first handle layer from the stack; and forming a second substrate on the stressor layer. Vertical LED devices and techniques for formation thereof are also provided.
