Abstract: The present invention has an object to perform a peeling treatment in a short time. Peeling is performed while a peeling layer is exposed to an atmosphere of an etching gas. Alternatively, peeling is performed while an etching gas for a peeling layer is blown to the peeling layer in an atmosphere of an etching gas. Specifically, an etching gas is blown to a part to be peeled while a layer to be peeled is torn off from a substrate. Alternatively, peeling is performed in an etchant for a peeling layer while supplying an etchant to the peeling layer.

Abstract: In the case where an integrated circuit formed of a thin film is formed over a substrate and peeled from the substrate, a fissure (also referred to as crack) is generated in the integrated circuit in some cases. The present invention is to restrain the generation of a fissure by fixing the proceeding direction of etching in one direction to make a peeled layer warp in one direction in accordance with the proceeding of etching. For example, the proceeding of etching can be controlled by utilizing the fact that a portion where a substrate is in contact with a base insulating layer is not etched in the case of patterning a peeling layer provided over the substrate, then forming the base insulating layer, and then fixing a peeled layer by the portion where the substrate is in contact with the base insulating layer.

According to the present invention, multiple holes or grooves reaching the peel layer are provided, and a material body having a pattern shape that does not cover the holes (or grooves) and the device portion is provided, then, gas or liquid containing fluorine halide is introduced to remove selectively the peel layer.
