A method for dicing an LED (light emitting diode) wafer into multiple LED chips includes steps: providing an LED wafer, the LED wafer comprising a substrate, a first semiconductor layer, a light-emitting layer, a second semiconductor layer, and a transparent, electrically conductive film; forming a first channel in the LED wafer extending downwardly through the transparent, electrically conductive film, the second semiconductor layer and the light-emitting layer to the first semiconductor layer, thereby exposing the first semiconductor layer; forming a second channel within the first channel, the second channel extending downwardly through the first semiconductor layer to the substrate, thereby exposing a top face of the substrate; forming a groove in the top face of the substrate within the second channel by means of laser cutting; and dicing the LED wafer along the groove.
