A method for forming an electronic device provides a carrier formed from a composite material comprising a plastic binder and an embedded material. A substrate material is attached to the carrier. The substrate is processed to form the electronic device thereon. The substrate is then detached from the carrier to yield the resultant electronic device.

A semiconductor device having a semiconductor element (a thin film transistor, a thin film diode, a photoelectric conversion element of silicon PIN junction, or a silicon resistor element) which is light-weight, flexible (bendable), and thin as a whole is provided as well as a method of manufacturing the semiconductor device. In the present invention, the element is not formed on a plastic film. Instead, a flat board such as a substrate is used as a form, the space between the substrate (third substrate (17)) and a layer including the element (peeled layer (13)) is filled with coagulant (typically an adhesive) that serves as a second bonding member (16), and the substrate used as a form (third substrate (17)) is peeled off after the adhesive is coagulated to hold the layer including the element (peeled layer (13)) by the coagulated adhesive (second bonding member (16)) alone. In this way, the present invention achieves thinning of the film and reduction in weight.

The process of fabricating a flexible TFT back-panel includes depositing etch stop material on a glass support. A matrix of contact pads, gate electrodes and gate dielectric are deposited overlying the etch stop material. Vias are formed through the dielectric in communication with each pad. A matrix of TFTs is formed by depositing and patterning metal oxide semiconductor material to form an active layer of each TFT overlying the gate electrode. Source/drain metal is deposited on the active layer and in the vias in contact with the pads, the source/drain metal defining source/drain terminals of each TFT. Passivation material is deposited in overlying relationship to the TFTs. A color filter layer is formed on the passivation material and a flexible plastic carrier is affixed to the color filter. The glass support member and the etch stop material are then etched away to expose a surface of each of the pads.
