  • Patent number: 8759230
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement of electronic semiconductor components on a carrier system for treating the semiconductor components with a liquid medium. A semiconductor component is detachably mounted on the carrier system with the active side thereof in such a way that the arrangement comprises a gap at least in the edge region and partially between the semiconductor components and the carrier system. The aim of the invention is to provide a detachable arrangement of electronic semiconductor components on a mechanically stable carrier system for safely handling the semiconductor components during the production process, wherein the capillarity of the gap between the semiconductor components and the carrier system is reduced in a controlled manner, thus preventing the damaging effect of a liquid medium seeping into the gap. To this end, the surface of the carrier system is shaped in such a way that the gap is widened along the entire edge region thereof.

  • Patent number: 7988794
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having a topology adjustment and a method for adjusting the topology of a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor wafer having first and second opposing sides with an active area formed on a first portion of the first side having a topology extending a first distance above the first side. A support member is attached to a second portion of the first side and extending a second distance above the first side, wherein the first distance is about the same as the second distance. In some exemplary embodiments, the support member is formed by applying adhesive to the second portion. The wafer is then spun to adjust the second distance.

  • Publication number: 20080014715
    Abstract: A device and a method for the processing of wafers is disclosed. One embodiment provides a method and a device in which a system wafer is bonded to a carrier work piece by using a bonding substance so as to increase the stability of the system wafer. After processing of the system wafer, the bonding effect of the bonding substance is cancelled. The system wafer can easily be detached from the carrier work piece without cutting out the carrier work piece, so that the dust exposure and the mechanical stress of the system wafer which occurs during the cutting out of the carrier work piece is avoided.
