Abstract
A silicon on insulator substrate apparatus for fabricating an active-matrix liquid crystal display is described herein. The silicon on insulator substrate may include a handle substrate and a plurality of crystalline silicon donor portions bonded to the handle substrate. The crystalline silicon donor portions may be bonded to the handle substrate by providing a plurality of donor substrates and forming a separation layer within each donor substrate. The donor substrates may be arranged across a surface of the handle substrate and subsequently bonded to the handle substrate. The donor substrates may then be cleaved at their respective separation layers and removed from the handle substrate, thereby leaving a donor portion of each donor substrate attached the handle substrate.
