Claim:
1. A method, comprising: providing a base substrate; depositing a stressor layer and a vaporizable release layer on the base substrate; forming a flexible support layer on at least one of the stressor layer and the vaporizable release layer; spalling an upper portion of the base substrate; securing the spalled upper portion of the base substrate to a handle substrate; and vaporizing the vaporizable release layer to release at least the flexible support layer from a remaining structure comprising the spalled upper portion of the base substrate secured to the handle substrate; wherein vaporizing the vaporizable release layer comprises applying heat to the vaporizable release layer to substantially or completely vaporize the vaporizable release layer such that the flexible support layer is physically released from said remaining structure as a direct result of the substantial or complete vaporization of the vaporizable release layer.
