WAFER PRODUCTION METHOD

A wafer production method includes a separation layer forming step of positioning, from an end surface, the focal point of a laser beam with a wavelength having transmissibility with respect to a semiconductor ingot, at a depth corresponding to the thickness of a wafer to be produced, and irradiatin...

Zusammenfassung:A wafer production method includes a separation layer forming step of positioning, from an end surface, the focal point of a laser beam with a wavelength having transmissibility with respect to a semiconductor ingot, at a depth corresponding to the thickness of a wafer to be produced, and irradiating the ingot with the laser beam to form a separation layer, a manufacturing history forming step of positioning the focal point of a laser beam with such a characteristic as not giving damage to a wafer to be produced next, to the upper surface of a region in which a device is not formed in the wafer to be produced, and irradiating the ingot with the laser beam to form a manufacturing history by ablation processing, and separating the wafer to be produced from the ingot using the separation layer as the point of origin, to produce the wafer.
