Title:
METHOD FOR CHAMFERING WAFER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/119765
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Though in conventional wafer chamfering, the chamfered shape (cross-sectional shape) of the wafer circumference is uniform, in a chamfering step in wafer manufacture, the uniform chamfered shape varies by the position on the circumference. Provided is a wafer chamfering method wherein deformation in the chamfering step in the wafer manufacture is taken into account. In the chamfering method, a grindstone without a groove is brought into contact with the edge (circumferential end portion) of the wafer, and the wafer is chamfered. The wafer and the grindstone are relatively moved in the Z axis direction and the Y axis direction, and a moving track which forms the same cross-sectional shape on the entire wafer circumference is set as a reference. For the chamfering operation wherein the relative positions of the wafer and the grindstone are changed from the reference track position to the Z axis direction and/or the Y axis direction corresponding to the wafer rotation angle positions, a piezoelectric actuator is used and different cross-sectional shapes corresponding to the wafer rotation angle positions are formed.
