Abstract
A method of manufacturing an electronic device on a plastic substrate includes: providing a carrier as a rigid support for the electronic device; providing a metallic layer on the carrier; forming the plastic substrate on the metallic layer, the metallic layer guaranteeing a temporary bonding of the plastic substrate to the carrier; forming the electronic device on the plastic substrate; and releasing the carrier from the plastic substrate. Releasing the carrier comprises immersing the electronic device bonded to the carrier in a oxygenated water solution that breaks the bonds between the plastic substrate and the metallic layer.
