Electronic components produced by a method of separating two layers of material from one another

A semiconductor body selected from the group consisting of a semiconductor layer, a semiconductor layer sequence or a semiconductor layer structure from a growth substrate to a support material;

• said semiconductor body being transferred from a growth substrate to a support material by:
• providing the growth substrate and the semiconductor body grown on the growth substrate;
• irradiating an interface between the growth substrate and the semiconductor body at which the growth substrate and the semiconductor body are to be separated or a region in proximity to said interface with electromagnetic radiation;
• absorbing the electromagnetic radiation at the interface or in the region in proximity of the interface and inducing a material at the interface to decompose;
• separating the semiconductor body from the growth substrate;
• and connecting the semiconductor body to the support material.
