Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a method for an improved protective coating for plasma dicing a substrate. A work piece having a support film, a frame and the substrate, the substrate having a top surface and a bottom surface, the top surface of the substrate having a plurality of device structures and a plurality of street areas is provided. The work piece is formed by adhering the substrate to a support film and then mounting the substrate with the support film to a frame. A composite material coating having a matrix component and a filler component is applied to the top surface of the substrate. The filler component has a plurality of particles. The composite material coating is removed from at least one street area to expose the street area. The exposed street area is plasma etched. The composite material coating is removed from the top surface of the substrate.
