Patent number: 10134784Abstract: To eliminate electric discharge when an element formation layer including a semiconductor element is peeled from a substrate used for manufacturing the semiconductor element, a substrate over which an element formation layer and a peeling layer are formed and a film are made to go through a gap between pressurization rollers. The film is attached to the element formation layer between the pressurization rollers, bent along a curved surface of the pressurization roller on a side of the pressurization rollers, and collected. Peeling is generated between the element formation layer and the peeling layer and the element formation layer is transferred to the film. Liquid is sequentially supplied by a nozzle to a gap between the element formation layer and the peeling layer, which is generated by peeling, so that electric charge generated on surfaces of the element formation layer and the peeling layer is diffused by the liquid.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2017Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: Semiconductor Energy Laboratory Co., Ltd.Inventors: Shingo Eguchi, Yohei Monma, Atsuhiro Tani, Misako Hirosue, Kenichi Hashimoto, Yasuharu Hosaka

Patent number: 9472429Abstract: An object is to suppress discharge due to static electricity generated by peeling, when an element formation layer including a semiconductor element is peeled from a substrate. Over the substrate, the release layer and the element formation layer are formed. The support base material which can be peeled later is fixed to the upper surface of the element formation layer. The element formation layer is transformed through the support base material, and peeling is generated at an interface between the element formation layer and the release layer. Peeling is performed while the liquid is being supplied so that the element formation layer and the release layer which appear sequentially by peeling are wetted with the liquid such as pure water. Electric charge generated on the surfaces of the element formation layer and the release layer can be diffused by the liquid, and discharge by peeling electrification can be eliminated.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2014Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: Semiconductor Energy Laboratory Co., Ltd.Inventors: Shingo Eguchi, Yohei Monma, Atsuhiro Tani, Misako Hirosue, Kenichi Hashimoto, Yasuharu Hosaka
