Abstract
A method for producing a thin film on a carrier substrate. For this purpose, a buried sacrificial layer is initially produced in the interior of a parent body, the buried sacrificial layer separating a layer from a residual body remaining from the parent body. After that, the carrier substrate is attached to the layer and the sacrificial layer is then removed. As a result, the thin film to be produced comes into being on the carrier substrate. The method is suitable for the production of electronic components or thin-film solar cells, the parent body being made up, for example, of monocrystalline silicon in which a sacrificial layer of porous silicon is produced.
