摘要:
A method of handling a thin wafer includes forming a support structure at the edge of a thinned wafer that is encapsulated by a protection layer. The support structure can be an adhesive layer enclosing the protection layer, a dielectric-filled trench embedded in the thinned wafer and surrounding the protection layer, or a housing affixing the edge of the thinned wafer.

A method of forming a semiconductor device is presented. A conductor is embedded within a substrate, wherein the substrate contains a non-conducting material. The backside of the substrate is ground to a thickness wherein at least 1 μm of the non-conducting material remains on the backside covering the conductor embedded within the substrate. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is employed with an undiscerning slurry to the backside of the substrate, thereby planarizing the substrate and exposing the conductive material. A spin wet-etch, with a protective formulation, is employed to remove a thickness y of the non-conducting material from the backside of the substrate, thereby causing the conductive material to uniformly protrude from the backside of the substrate.
