1. A method, comprising:

  • implanting at least one implant species between a first semiconductor substrate and an epitaxial layer which is formed on the first semiconductor substrate, to form an ion-implanted layer which is in contact with and disposed between the epitaxial layer and the first semiconductor substrate;

    after implanting the at least one implant species between the first semiconductor substrate and the epitaxial layer, without forming any layer on the epitaxial layer, bonding the epitaxial layer to a bonding oxide layer of a second semiconductor substrate; and

    removing the first semiconductor substrate together with a portion of the ion-implanted layer from a remaining portion of the ion-implanted layer and the epitaxial layer, without removing any portion of the epitaxial layer, to separate the first semiconductor substrate from the epitaxial layer.
