摘要： A method for separating a semiconductor wafer into several thousand devices or dies by laser ablation. Semiconductor wafers are initially pre-processed to create multiple devices, such as blue LEDs, on the wafers. The wafers are then mounted with tape coated with a generally high level adhesive. The mounted wafer is then placed on a vacuum chuck (which is itself positioned on a computer controlled positioning table) to hold it in place during the cutting process. The cutting surface is then covered with a protective layer to prevent contamination from the effluent resulting from the actual cutting process. A laser beam is generated and passed through optical elements and masks to create a pattern, such as a line or multiple lines. The patterned laser projection is directed at the wafer at a substantially normal angle and applied to the wafer until at least a partial cut is achieved through it. A mechanical separation process completes the separation when only a partial cut is achieved by the patterned laser projection. The dies are then transferred to a grip ring for further processing.

摘要： In a method for fabricating a flip-chip light emitting diode device, epitaxial layers (14, 114) are deposited on a growth substrate (16, 116) to produce an epitaxial wafer. A plurality of light emitting diode devices are fabricated on the epitaxial wafer. The epitaxial wafer is diced to generate a device die (10, 110). The device die (10, 110) is flip chip bonded to a mount (12, 112). The flip chip bonding includes securing the device die (10, 110) to the mount (12, 112) by bonding at least one electrode (20, 22, 120) of the device die (10, 110) to at least one bonding pad (26, 28, 126) of the mount (12, 112). Subsequent to the flip chip bonding, a thickness of the growth substrate (16, 116) of the device die (10, 110) is reduced.
