Singulation method and resulting device of thick gallium and nitrogen containing substrates

摘要

A method for singulation of thick GaN wafers (e.g., 300-400 um) through the use of a double-side laser-scribe process. In a preferred embodiment, the patterned GaN substrate is processed using a laser-scribe on each side of the substrate to form scribe lines. The scribe lines are aligned to each other. In a preferred embodiment, the substrate has not been subjected to a thinning or polishing process for reducing its thickness.
