  • Publication number: 20080146003
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for separation of a silicon wafer (12a) from a vertical stack (10) of silicon wafers (12). The method is characterised in that it comprises attaching a movable transport device (2) to a surface of the silicon wafer (12a) in the stack (10), and horizontal movement of the silicon wafer (12a) parallel (A) to the surface of the silicon wafer (12a) until the silicon wafer (12a) is separated from the stack (10). The invention also comprises a device for implementing the method.
