[Problems] There are provided a chip separation method and a chip transfer method using features of dry etching. [Means for Solving the Problems] In the chip separation method, a multiple number of semiconductor devices or semiconductor integrated circuits are separated from a wafer 100 on which the multiple number of semiconductor devices or semiconductor integrated circuits are formed. The method includes forming, on a surface of the wafer 100, a mask layer through which a line-shaped pattern to be removed for separating the semiconductor devices or semiconductor integrated circuits is exposed; and etching the exposed pattern to a depth equal to or larger than about 2/3 of a thickness of the wafer. One group of separated semiconductor devices or semiconductor integrated circuits has a distinguishable shape from another group of separated semiconductor devices or semiconductor integrated circuits. |
