A laser lift-off (LLO) process has been developed for detaching thin InGaN/GaN lightemitting diodes (LED) from their original sapphire substrates by applying an ultrafast laser. LLO is usually based on intense UV irradiation, which is transmitted through the sapphire substrate and subsequently absorbed at the interface to the epitaxially grown GaN stack. Here, we present a successful implementation of a two-step LLO process with 350 fs short pulses in the green spectral range (520 nm) based on a two-photon absorption mechanism. Cathodo- and electroluminescence experiments have proven the functionality of the LLO-based chips. The impact of radiation on the material quality was analysed with scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), revealing structural modifications inside the GaN layer in some cases.
