Abstract

See full text

A spalling process can be employed to generate a fracture at a predetermined depth within a high quality crystalline nitride substrate, such as a bulk GaN substrate. A first crystalline conductive film layer can be separated, along the line of fracture, from the crystalline nitride substrate and subsequently bonded to a layered stack including a traditional lower-cost substrate. If the spalled surface of the first crystalline conductive film layer is exposed in the resulting structure, the structure can act as a substrate on which high quality GaN-based devices can be grown.
