摘要:
A laser processing method which can accurately cut an object to be processed along a line to cut is provided. A modified region 7 formed by multiphoton absorption forms a cutting start region 8 within an object to be processed 1 along a line 5 along which the object is intended to be cut. Thereafter, the object 1 is irradiated with laser light L2 transmittable through an unmodified region of the object 1, so as to generate fractures 24 from the cutting start region 8 acting as a start point, whereby the object 1 can accurately be cut along the line 5 along which the object is intended to be cut. Expanding an expandable film 19 having the object 1 secured thereto separates individual chips 25 from each other, which can further improve the reliability in cutting the object 1 along the line 5 along which the object is intended to be cut.

A laser beam machining method and a laser beam machining device capable of cutting a work without producing a fusing and a cracking out of a predetermined cutting line on the surface of the work, wherein a pulse laser beam is radiated on the predetermined cutting line on the surface of the work to cause multiple photon absorption and with a condensed point located inside of the work, and a modified area is formed inside the work along the predetermined determined cutting line by moving the condensed point along the predetermined cut line, whereby the work is cut with a small force by cracking the work along the predetermined cutting line starting from the modified area and, because the pulse laser beam is hardly absorbed onto the surface.

A laser beam machining method and a laser beam machining device capable of cutting a work without producing a fusing and a cracking out of a predetermined cutting line on the surface of the work, wherein a pulse laser beam is radiated on the predetermined cut line on the surface of the work under the conditions causing a multiple photon absorption and with a condensed point aligned to the inside of the work, and a modified area is formed inside the work along the predetermined determined cut line by moving the condensed point along the predetermined cut line, whereby the work can be cut with a rather small force by cracking the work along the predetermined cut line starting from the modified area and, because the pulse laser beam radiated is not almost absorbed onto the surface of the work, the surface is not fused even if the modified area is formed.

摘要:
A silicon substrate 12 has a main face in a (100) plane, whereby a fracture 17 generated from a molten processed region 13 acting as a start point extends in a cleavage direction of the silicon substrate 12 (a direction orthogonal to the main face of the silicon substrate 12). Here, a rear face 1b of an object to be processed 1A and a front face 10a of an object to be processed for separation 10A are bonded to each other by anode bonding, whereby the fracture 17 reaches a front face 1a of the object 1A continuously without substantially changing its direction. When generating a stress in the object for separation 10A, the fracture 17 has reached a rear face 10b of the object for separation 10A and thus easily extends toward the object 1A.

Multiphoton absorption is generated, so as to form a part which is intended to be cut 9 due to a molten processed region 13 within a silicon wafer 11, and then an adhesive sheet 20 bonded to the silicon wafer 11 is expanded. This cuts the silicon wafer 11 along the part which is intended to be cut 9 with a high precision into semiconductor chips 25. Here, opposing cut sections 25a, 25a of neighboring semiconductor chips 25, 25 are separated from each other from their close contact state, whereby a die-bonding resin layer 23 is also cut along the part which is intended to be cut 9. Therefore, the silicon wafer 11 and die-bonding resin layer 23 can be cut much more efficiently than in the case where the silicon wafer 11 and die-bonding resin layer 23 are cut with a blade without cutting a base 21.

摘要:
A working object grinding method capable of grinding a working object reliably is provided. A working object 1 is irradiated with a laser beam while locating a converging point therewithin, so as to form a reformed region 7 in the working object 1 along a reformed-region forming line set at a predetermined distance inside from an outer edge of the working object 1 along the outer edge, and a rear face 21 of the working object 1 is ground. As a result, the reformed region 7 or fissures C1 extending therefrom can inhibit fissures generated in an outer edge portion 25 upon grinding the working object 1 from advancing to the inside, whereby the working object 1 can be prevented from fracturing.

A substrate dividing method which can thin and divide a substrate while preventing chipping and cracking from occurring. This substrate dividing method comprises the steps of irradiating a semiconductor substrate 1 having a front face 3 formed with functional devices 19 with laser light while positioning a light-converging point within the substrate, so as to form a modified region including a molten processed region due to multiphoton absorption within the semiconductor substrate 1, and causing the modified region including the molten processed region to form a starting point region for cutting; and grinding a rear face 21 of the semiconductor substrate 1 after the step of forming the starting point region for cutting such that the semiconductor substrate 1 attains a predetermined thickness.
