Zusammenfassung:A photo alignment structure is provided that includes a wafer having scribe lines defined therein in a top planar surface of the wafer. An alignment structure is disposed on a top planar surface of the wafer longitudinally aligned with a portion of selected scribe lines, where the alignment structure is comprised of metal layers. A slot is defined along a longitudinal axis of the alignment structure in at least one of the metal layers.
