Laser marking of semiconductor wafer substrate while inhibiting
adherence to substrate surface of particles generated during laser
marking
摘要:
The present invention provides apparatus and a process for efficiently removing particles generated during a laser marking of the semiconductor wafer substrate, thereby improving the yield. The process of the invention for marking a semiconductor wafer substrate by a beam of laser radiation comprises the steps of flowing a gas over a marking region at a predetermined flow rate and removing the gas from the marking region at the same predetermined flow rate, thereby generating a gas flow having a predetermined flow rate over and adjacent the marking region so that particles produced from the semiconductor wafer substrate while it is being marked will be removed. In a preferred embodiment, the semiconductor wafer substrate may be mounted with its upper surface to be marked directed downwardly while the laser marking beam is directed upwardly to the substrate.
