Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020188168A1] The invention relates to a method for transferring an useful layer onto a support substrate, said method involving the following steps: a) providing a donor substrate comprising a buried fragile plane, the useful layer being delimited by a front face of the donor substrate and the buried fragile plane; b) providing a support substrate; c) joining the donor substrate by its front face to the support substrate over a bonding interface to form a bonded structure; d) annealing the bonded structure to apply a weakening thermal budget thereto and bringing the buried fragile plane to a defined break-off level; e) initiating a fracture wave in the buried fragile plane by applying stress to the bonded structure, the fracture wave self-propagating along the buried fragile plane to lead to the transfer of the useful layer onto the support substrate. The transfer method is characterized in that the fracture wave is initiated while the bonded structure is subjected to a maximum temperature of 150° to 250°C.
