    摘要: A cutting unit includes a spindle, a spindle housing, a support flange on the front of the spindle, a cutting blade detachably supported to the support flange, and a fixing flange for fixing the cutting blade to the support flange. The support flange includes a boss portion adapted to be inserted through a central opening of the cutting blade, a flange portion for supporting one side surface of the cutting blade, and a cylindrical portion for engaging the front of the spindle. The flange portion has a suction hole opening toward the fixing flange, and the cylindrical portion has a communication hole communicating with the suction hole. The communication hole is connected to a vacuum source through a rotary joint fixed to the spindle housing so that communication between the communication hole and the vacuum source is selectively made by an on-off valve.

    摘要: A wafer is divided into device chips each of which is surrounded by a mold resin. The wafer has a plurality of devices arranged like a matrix with a spacing having a predetermined width, the front side of each device being covered with the mold resin, the spacing being filled with the mold resin to form a street between any adjacent ones of the devices. The wafer processing method includes a division start point forming step of forming a division start point along each street at the lateral center of the mold resin filling the spacing and a dividing step of applying an external force to the wafer after performing the division start point forming step, thereby laterally dividing each street into two parts at the division start point to obtain the device chips divided from each other, each device chip being surrounded by the mold resin.

    摘要: A semiconductor wafer processing method for planarizing an additional layer formed on the front side of a semiconductor wafer. First, the wafer is held on a chuck table included in a cutting device in the condition where the additional layer is exposed, and a table base supporting the chuck table is moved toward a working position. In concert with the movement of the table base, the exposed surface of the additional layer is cut by a bit of a cutting tool rotationally driven by a spindle motor. Thereafter, the exposed surface of the additional layer is polished by a polishing device to planarize the exposed surface of the additional layer.

    摘要: A method for removing the circumferential edge of a dielectric layer on a semiconductor wafer is disclosed. First, a semiconductor wafer having a dielectric layer on its upper surface is provided. Second, the semiconductor wafer is placed and secured on a susceptor. Third, the circumferential edge of the dielectric layer is removed by a ring cutter. Then, the semiconductor wafer is cleaned from its central portion to its edge portion by water jets.

    摘要: A drive mechanism for a wafer processing machine of the kind which holds a silicon wafer on a vacuum chuck and rotates the wafer for processing operations on the wafer periphery or upper surface incorporates a low-speed motor, a high-speed motor and an overrunning clutch. The low-speed motor is connected to a drive shaft for the chuck through the overrunning clutch and rotates the chuck and wafer at a relatively low and precisely-controlled speed while the edge of the wafer is contoured by a grinding wheel or while the upper surface is mechanically cleaned by a brush engaged with the upper surface of the wafer. The high-speed motor is directly connected to the drive shaft and, when energized for a rinsing and drying operation, rotates the chuck and wafer in the same direction of rotation as the low-speed motor but at high speed while the wafer is being rinsed and dried after the grinding or cleaning operation. During the grinding or cleaning operation the high-speed motor is energized toward rotation in a direction opposed to the direction of rotation produced by the low-speed motor. The biasing torque so produced insures against any slack or rebounding through the overrunning clutch which could result in skipping or chattering of the engagement of the grinding wheel with the periphery of the wafer during the contouring of the periphery of the wafer or which could result in loss of clamping contact between the chuck and the wafer.

    摘要: A machine for sectioning and measuring thin layered materials such as are used in semiconductors in which: the workpiece is positioned in a mechanical chuck which supports and protects the workpiece during the operations of sectioning, cleaning, staining, transfer and measurement, the machine includes electromagnetic elements for biasing the workpiece into engagement with a rotary abrasive tool of precisely known radius and the force of the electromagnet is manually adjusted by a rheostat having a pointer dial and an index of section width marks so referenced to the dial and the rheostat that setting the pointer dial to any width mark of the index results in application of the correct bias force of the workpiece toward the rotary tool for the section width to which the dial is set. Contamination of the work area by spent coolant is prevented by applying the coolant to the rotary abrasive tool at a controlled rate by a positive displacement pump, spreading it evenly over the surface of the tool and removing it with a resilient blade before it exceeds a film thickness at which adhesive and cohesive forces are greater than the centrifugal forces acting upon it. Damage to work pieces is prevented by an automatic time delay relay which delays the application of the selected bias force for several seconds after the start of each sectioning operation.
