Abstract
A method for curing defects associated with the implantation of atomic species into a semiconductor layer transferred onto a receiver substrate, wherein the semiconductor layer is thermally insulated from the receiver substrate by a low thermal conductivity layer having thermal conductivity that is lower than that of the transferred semiconductor layer. The method includes applying a selective electromagnetic irradiation to the semiconductor layer to heat that layer to a temperature lower than its temperature of fusion to cure defects without causing an increase in the temperature of the receiver substrate beyond 500° C.
