  • Publication number: 20240063059
    Abstract: In a case where a crack occurs in a dicing step, the crack can be suppressed from proceeding toward an element region. A first scribe region and a second scribe region that both define an element region are formed in a main surface of a semiconductor wafer. In the first scribe region, an evaluation-deep-trench group including an evaluation-deep-trench-first portion and an evaluation-deep-trench-second portion is formed. The evaluation-deep-trench-first portion is formed in a first region. The evaluation-deep-trench-second portion has a width in an X-axis direction, and is formed in a bar shape extending in a Y-axis direction, in a second region located between the first region and the element region.
