  • Publication number: 20240149494
    Abstract: A method for silicon carbide ingot peeling includes the steps of: placing the silicon carbide ingot between first and second suckers; having a pressing head disposed on a top surface of the first sucker to apply mechanical oscillatory energy to both the silicon carbide ingot and the second sucker through the first sucker; and, having an elastic element disposed under the second sucker to absorb part of the mechanical oscillatory energy to transmit longitudinal waves thereof to a modified layer of the silicon carbide ingot for propagating individually intermittent invisible cracks at the modified layer to break silicon carbide chains at different levels. Till the cracks connect together for forming a continuous crack across the silicon carbide ingot, a top portion of the silicon carbide ingot is then separable therefrom to form a wafer. In addition, an apparatus for silicon carbide ingot peeling is also provided.
