Abstract
A method of fabricating an electronic device includes providing a silicon carbide or diamond-like carbon donor body and implanting ions into a first surface of the donor body to define a cleave plane. After implanting, an epitaxial layer is formed on the first surface, and a temporary carrier is coupled to the epitaxial layer. A lamina is cleaved from the donor body at the cleave plane, and the temporary carrier is removed from the lamina. In some embodiments a light emitting diode or a high electron mobility transistor is fabricated from the lamina and epitaxial layer.
