Abstract

A method of transferring a thin film from a substrate to a flexible support that includes transfer of the flexible support by a layer of polymer, crosslinkable under ultraviolet light, directly on the thin film, the adhesion energy of the polymer evolving according to its degree of crosslinking, decreasing to an energy point d minimum adhesion achieved for a nominal crosslinking rate, then increasing for a crosslinking rate greater than the nominal crosslinking rate, then apply, on the polymer layer, an ultraviolet exposure parameterized so as to stiffen the polymer layer and have an adhesion energy between the thin film and the flexible support greater than an adhesion energy between the thin film and the substrate, then remove the substrate.
