“…The method has contributed to the development of various applications in high-performance electronics [ 74 , 75 , 76 ], stretchable displays [ 45 ], tactile sensors [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 51 , 77 , 78 ], and biomedical devices [ 79 , 80 ]. Various methods have been investigated for the development of ultrathin single crystalline silicon-based electronics, such as the selective removal of buried oxide using HF [ 78 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 , 93 , 94 , 95 , 96 ], the bottom etching of silicon substrates using aqueous alkaline solutions of potassium hydroxide (KOH) [ 97 ] or tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH), and removal processes using defined ribbon patterns with bridges using reactive ion etching (RIE) [ 45 , 98 , 99 ]. Conventional electronic devices fabricated using the CMOS (complementary metal–oxide semiconductor) microfabrication processes have drawbacks (e.g., not flexible, fragile in mechanical shock) originating from mechanical properties of bulk silicon, whereas the devices based on ultrathin single crystalline silicon could be mechanically flexible and robust while benefiting from the excellent electrical properties of bulk silicon.…”
