摘要: A peeling tool includes a lower surface portion that is to be placed on a holding sheet affixed to a first surface of a workpiece, an upper surface portion corresponding to a second surface of the workpiece to which a protective sheet is affixed, and an abutting portion that has a shape conforming to an outer peripheral shape of the workpiece, that has a thickness corresponding to a thickness of the workpiece, and that is to abut on an outer peripheral portion of the workpiece. The upper surface portion has a width larger than a width of a peeling tape that is to be affixed to the protective sheet and used for peeling off the protective sheet, and is formed of a material that rejects affixing of the peeling tape. The lower surface portion is formed of a material that rejects affixing of the holding sheet.

摘要: A manufacturing method of a device chip includes removing a film in regions corresponding to streets, forming a modified layer inside a wafer by irradiating a laser beam from the back surface side of the wafer along regions corresponding to the regions from which the film has been removed, and giving an external force to the wafer to divide the wafer into individual device chips. In film removal, the distance from an end part of the street in the width direction to the region from which the film is to be removed is set equal to or shorter than a predetermined upper limit value to cause formation of a step between a region in which a substrate is exposed and a region coated with the film at an outer edge part of the device chip when the wafer is divided into the individual device chips in the dividing step.

摘要: A method of processing a bonded wafer includes applying a laser beam having a wavelength transmittable through a first wafer to a first wafer from a reverse Sublaser beam within the first wafer to form a modified layer in the first wafer and cracks developed from the modified layer and extending toward an outer circumferential portion of the first wafer along the bonding layer, and grinding the reverse side of the first wafer to thin down the first wafer. A plurality of modified layers are formed in the first wafer at positions spaced parallel to the plane of the first wafer radially inwardly from the outer circumferential portion of the first wafer, developing cracks in and along the joining layer toward the outer circumferential portion to form a removal initiating point for removing a chamfered edge.

摘要: A method of processing a bonded wafer includes a modified layer forming step of applying a laser beam to a first wafer from a reverse side thereof while positioning a focused spot of the laser beam within the first wafer to form a modified layer in the first wafer and cracks developed from the modified layer and extending toward an outer circumferential portion of the first wafer along the bonding layer, and a grinding step of grinding the reverse side of the first wafer to thin down the first wafer. In the modified layer forming step, the focused spot of the laser beam includes multi-focused spots, and a line interconnecting the multi-focused spots forms a depression angle ranging from 15 to 50 degrees toward the outer circumferential portion of the first wafer with respect to a line parallel to a plane of the first wafer.
