    摘要: In a double side simultaneous grinding machine, in which a plate-like workpiece is held and ground simultaneously on both a front surface and a back surface using a pair of grinding stones provided oppositely at both sides of the workpiece, a relative position between at least one of the center of thickness of the plate-like workpiece and the center of the holding means for holding the workpiece, and the center between stone surfaces of the pair of grinding stones is controlled during grinding. In a double side simultaneous grinding method, the generation of warpage of the plate-like workpiece is suppressed and degradation of warpage is prevented. Thereby, the plate-like workpiece can be processed to have high flatness on both sides. Further, the plate-like workpiece can be ground while a degree of warpage is controlled so that the workpiece is processed to have a warpage of a desired degree.

Basic steps involved are a slicing step E for obtaining thin disc-shape wafers by slicing, a chamfering step F for chamfering the sliced wafers, a flattening step G for flattening the chamfered wafers, an alkali etching step H for removing process damage layers from the flattened wafers, and a double-side polishing step K of simultaneously polishing the two sides of the etched wafers. If necessary, a plasma etching step is used in lieu of the flattening and etching steps G and H respectively.
