    Abstract: A wafer thinning method for a wafer includes bonding a first support substrate to a first surface of the wafer, positioning a focused spot of a laser beam with a wavelength transmittable through the wafer from a second surface side of the wafer inside the wafer, and applying the laser beam while moving the focused spot and the wafer relative to each other in a direction parallel to the second surface, thereby forming separation start points each including a modified layer parallel to the second surface and cracks extending from the modified layer, applying an ultrasonic wave to the wafer from the second surface side of the wafer, bonding a second support substrate to the second surface of the wafer, and separating the wafer at the separation start points into a first wafer having the first surface and a second wafer having the second surface, thereby thinning the wafer.

    Abstract: A method of cleaning a die having an oxide layer is provided. The method includes discharging electromagnetic energy towards a working surface of the die having a layer of at least one of graphite and boron nitride thereon. The electromagnetic energy is discharged at a power output between about 6 kW and about 15 kW such that the layer of at least one of graphite and boron nitride is ablated, and such that the layer is removed without removing an oxide layer between the surface of the die and the layer.

    Abstract: A substrate processing method for forming a space extending along a predetermined line in a silicon substrate includes a first step of converging a laser light which is an elliptically-polarized light having an ellipticity other than 1 at the substrate so as to form a plurality of modified spots within the substrate along the line and construct a modified region including the modified spots, and a second step of anisotropically etching the substrate so as to advance an etching selectively along the modified region and form the space in the substrate. In the first step, the light is converged at the substrate such that a moving direction of the light with respect to the substrate and a direction of polarization of the light form an angle of less than 45° therebetween, and the modified spots are made align in a plurality of rows along the line.

    Abstract: A laser processing method comprises a laser light converging step of converging a laser light at a sheet-like object to be processed made of silicon so as to form a modified region within the object, and an etching step of anisotropically etching the object so as to thin the object to a target thickness and advancing the etching selectively along the modified region so as to form the object with a through hole tilted with respect to a thickness direction of the object after the laser light converging step, wherein the laser light converging step forms a first modified region as the modified region in a part corresponding to the through hole in the object and a second modified region as the modified region extending parallel to the thickness direction and joining with the first modified region in a part to be removed upon thinning by the anisotropic etching in the object, and wherein the etching step advances the etching selectively along the second modified region and then along the first modified region while thinning the object and completes forming the through hole when the object is at the target thickness.
