Abstract
We demonstrate a process for the fabrication and transfer of silicon nanomembranes (Si-NMs) that have been released from their host substrates and redeposited on foreign flexible or flat substrates. The transfer process developed allows intricate photonic devices to be transferred via NMs to a variety of new substrate materials. This allows the transferred devices to benefit from the material properties of both substrate and NM. Our process is designed to transfer and stack large-area photonic devices without compromising their optical performance. The process has been used to transfer large-area unpatterned silicon NMs, in excess of
