METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PLASMA DICING A SEMI-CONDUCTOR WAFER

摘要

The present invention provides a method for plasma processing a substrate, the method comprising providing a process chamber having a wall; providing a plasma source adjacent to the wall of the process chamber; providing a work piece support within the process chamber; loading a work piece onto the work piece support, the work piece having a support film, a frame and the substrate; providing at least two cutting regions on the substrate, the cutting regions being positioned between all adjacent device structures on the substrate; generating a plasma using the plasma source; and processing the work piece using the generated plasma.
