Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018108938A1] The present invention relates to a method for separating at least one solid body layer (4) from at least one solid body (1). The method according to the invention includes the following steps: producing a plurality of modifications (9) by means of laser beams in the interior of the solid body (1) in order to form a separation plane (8); producing a composite structure by arranging or producing layers and/or components (150) on or above an initially exposed surface (5) of the solid body (1), wherein the exposed surface (5) is a part of the solid body layer (4) to be separated; introducing an external force into the solid body (1) in order to create stresses in the solid body (1), wherein the external force is so strong that the stresses cause a crack propagation along the separation plane (8), and wherein the modifications to form the separation plane (8) are produced before producing the composite structure.
