  • Patent number: 7964475
    Abstract: A modified layer 5 and an altered layer 8 are formed outside a dicing point of a dicing area 3. Thus without forming another interface between different physical properties on the dicing point, it is possible to prevent chipping from progressing along a crystal orientation from an interface between a semiconductor element 2 and a semiconductor substrate 1 and from a surface of the semiconductor element during dicing, thereby suppressing the development of chipping to the semiconductor element.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 6, 2007
    Date of Patent: June 21, 2011
    Assignee: Panasonic Corporation
    Inventors: Yukiko Haraguchi, Takahiro Kumakawa, Takashi Yui, Kazumi Watase
