`
`REMARKS
`
`The prior Office Action has been carefully considered. Reconsideration in view of the
`
`present Remarks is respectfully requested.
`
`The undersigned thanks Examincr Joy for courtcsics extended in related application
`
`12/497,652 during the interview of 8/29/2013. Identical issues are presented in the present
`
`application, with certain relevant features of the claims and the art applied against the claims
`
`being the same. In the related application, agreement was reached that the combination of Bcrtin
`
`and Kato does not teach a substantially flexible circuit layer as claimed in the independent
`
`claims and that the rejection of claims based on the combination of Bertin and Kato would be
`
`withdrawn.
`
`A explained during the interview, a substantially tlexible semiconductor substrate is at
`
`?ic’3(f6.')‘.3?(LZifi7l3°l.1l.Il,(')l'. a .§z{;""ic'.ierzz condition fer a substantially tlexiblte circuit layer: A substanti ally
`
`flexible semiconductor sul3st:'ate inay be achieved by grinding until censiderably tliin, fer
`
`example to a thickness of less than 59 microns, and polishing the resulting surface. As noted in
`
`the rej ectlon, the primary reference Bertin tails to teach polishing.
`
`liato teaches grindin the backside of a circuit layer and polishing the resulting, stirface.
`
`The seniiconductor substrate itself (part of the circuit layer) niay be argued to be substantially
`
`flexible. Hmvever, there is no teacliing or suggestion that the eireariz {rm/»:z' as a whole is
`

`
`
`substantially flexible. Tlie circuit layer may be fabricated in a manner that undoes or defeats

`flexibility oftlie S€31’I1lCG1‘u'.‘llI.CE01” sti‘cstrate.
`
`More particularly, a circuit layer requires one or more dielectric layers. Dielectric
`
`niaterial has an asseciatecl level of stress. F01‘ a circuit layer to be substantially flexible,

`
`For these reasons, withdrawal of the rejections is respectfully requested.

`Respectfully submitted,
