A packaged semiconductor chip comprising an integrated circuit chip including a low-k dielectric layer and a chip substrate, wherein an edge of the integrated circuit chip has a first edge portion and a second edge portion. At least part of the first edge portion being across a same level as the low-k dielectric layer, and the first edge portion having been laser ablated to have a series of rounded recesses formed therein. The second edge portion being across a same level as at least part of the chip substrate, and the second edge portion having a different surface texture than that of the first edge portion. The packaged semiconductor chip also comprises a packaging substrate having the integrated circuit chip attached and a plurality of solder bumps electrically connecting between the packaging substrate and the integrated circuit chip.

A method of cutting an integrated circuit chip from a wafer having a plurality of integrated circuit chips is provided. An upper portion of the wafer is ablated using two laser beams to form two substantially parallel trenches that extend into the wafer from a top surface of the wafer through intermetal dielectric layers and at least partially into a substrate of the wafer. After the ablating to form the two trenches, cutting through the wafer between outer sidewalls of the two laser-ablated trenches with a saw blade is performed. A width between the outer sidewalls of the two laser-ablated trenches is greater than a cutting width of the saw blade. This may be particularly useful in lead-free packaging applications and/or applications where the intermetal dielectric layers use low-k dielectric materials, for example.
