Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an adhesive composition for photo-irradiation peeling, a laminate, and a method for producing a processed semiconductor substrate. Background Art

[0002] With regard to semiconductor wafers that were previously integrated in a two-dimensional plane direction, a semiconductor integration technology that further integrates (stacks) the plane in a three-dimensional direction is pursued for the purpose of further integration. This three-dimensional stacking is a technology that integrates into multiple layers while wiring through silicon vias (TSV). When integrating into multiple layers, the side opposite to the circuit surface formed (i.e., the back side) of each wafer to be integrated is thinned by grinding, and the thinned semiconductor wafers are stacked.

[0003] The semiconductor wafer before thinning (also referred to as wafer here) is bonded to a support body in order to be ground using a grinding device. The bonding at this time must be easy to peel off after grinding, so it is called temporary bonding. The temporary bonding must be easy to disassemble from the support body. When a large force is applied to the disassembly, the thinned semiconductor wafer is sometimes cut or deformed. In order to avoid such a situation, it is easy to disassemble. However, when the back of the semiconductor wafer is ground, it is not preferred that it is detached or offset due to the grinding stress. Therefore, the performance pursued by temporary bonding is: to withstand the stress during grinding and to be easy to disassemble after grinding.

[0004] For example, the following properties are sought: high stress (strong adhesive force) with respect to the planar direction during grinding, and low stress (weak adhesive force) with respect to the longitudinal direction during removal.

[0005] For such bonding and separation processes, methods using laser irradiation have been disclosed (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2). However, with further progress in the semiconductor field in recent years, new technologies related to peeling by irradiation with light such as laser have been sought.

[0009] Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2012-106486 Summary of the invention

[0010] Problems to be solved by the invention

[0011] The above-mentioned patent documents 1 and 2 describe a laminated body, wherein two layers, a bonding layer (adhesive layer) and a light conversion layer (also called a separation layer) containing a light absorber, are laminated between the substrate and the support in order to peel off the substrate corresponding to the above-mentioned semiconductor chip and the support by laser irradiation.

[0012] Furthermore, if a layer having both the bonding function of the adhesive layer and the peeling function of peeling the substrate of the separation layer from the support body can be formed in the form of a single layer, the two-layer structure of the adhesive layer and the separation layer can be made into a single layer structure, thereby reducing the number of layers. Therefore, from the perspective of producing a laminated body with a simpler structure, this is ideal.

[0013] Therefore, it is desired to provide a laminate having an adhesive layer which has both an adhesive function and a peeling function using light and can be peeled by light irradiation.

[0014] The present invention has been completed in view of the above situation, and its purpose is to provide a laminate, an adhesive composition for forming the following peelable adhesive layer, and a method for manufacturing a processed semiconductor substrate using the following laminate, wherein the laminate has an adhesive layer in one layer that has both bonding and peeling functions and can be peeled by light irradiation, and the laminate can firmly bond a supporting substrate to the semiconductor substrate when the semiconductor substrate is polished, and after polishing, the supporting substrate and the semiconductor substrate can be easily separated by light irradiation.

[0099] The amount of the platinum group metal catalyst (A2) is not particularly limited, but is usually within a range of 1.0 to 50.0 ppm based on the total amount of the polyorganosiloxane (a1) and the polyorganosiloxane (a2).

[0102] The amount of the polymerization inhibitor is not particularly limited, but is usually 1000.0 ppm or more based on the total amount of polyorganosiloxane (a1) and polyorganosiloxane (a2) from the viewpoint of obtaining the effect thereof and 10000.0 ppm or less from the viewpoint of preventing excessive inhibition of the hydrosilylation reaction.

[0103] <Removal agent component (R)>

[0104] The release agent component (R) of the present invention contains a (meth)acrylic polymer. The (meth)acrylic polymer includes a silicone-based first unit and a second unit having a structure that absorbs light.

[0105] The adhesive composition of the present invention, which uses the polysiloxane resin of the above-mentioned adhesive component (S) and the (meth)acrylic polymer containing the first unit and the second unit as the release agent component (R), can well form an adhesive layer for light irradiation release that effectively functions as a temporary adhesive layer and also effectively functions as a laser release agent layer.

[0106] Furthermore, the (meth)acrylic polymer preferably includes a third unit in addition to the first unit and the second unit in order to improve the compatibility between the first unit and the second unit.

[0107] Hereinafter, each unit of the (meth)acrylic polymer will be described in detail.

[0160]

[0161] <<Unit 3>>

[0162] The (meth)acrylic polymer of the present invention preferably includes a third unit represented by the following formula (C-1) or the following formula (C-2) in addition to the above-mentioned first unit and the above-mentioned second unit.

[0163]

[0164] (In formula (C-1) and formula (C-2), Rp represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. Rq represents a chain saturated hydrocarbon group having 3 or more carbon atoms. Rr represents an aromatic hydrocarbon group or an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 6 or more carbon atoms. r represents an integer greater than 0.)

[0165] In Rr, the aromatic hydrocarbon group and the aliphatic hydrocarbon group may each be a monocyclic ring or a condensed ring, or a linked ring formed by linking any ring selected from these rings. In addition, the aromatic hydrocarbon group and the aliphatic hydrocarbon group may be linked.

[0166] The third unit is effective as a unit for improving the compatibility between the first unit and the second unit.

[0167] The third unit can be obtained by, for example, using a monomer represented by the following formula (C-1-1) or the following formula (C-2-1) and polymerizing the monomer. Examples of the monomer represented by the following formula (C-1-1) or the following formula (C-2-1) include stearyl methacrylate, hexyl acrylate, behenyl acrylate, benzyl methacrylate, and dicyclopentyl methacrylate.

[0168]

[0169] The third unit is preferably a unit represented by any of the following formulas (C-3) to (C-7).

[0170]

[0171] When the release agent component (R) is mixed with the adhesive component (S), for example, if a polymer having only a second unit having a structure that absorbs light is used for mixing, the compatibility with the adhesive component (S) is poor and the mixture becomes turbid. Therefore, in the present invention, a first unit having good solubility with the adhesive component is used, and a polymer having a first unit and a second unit is mixed with the adhesive component (S), thereby improving the solubility of the polymer and the adhesive component (S) and preventing turbidity of the mixture.

[0172] However, the solubility between the first unit and the second unit is not sufficient, and therefore, in order to prevent turbidity of the polymer having the first unit and the second unit itself, in the present invention, it is more preferable to include a third unit in the polymer for improving the compatibility between the first unit and the second unit.

[0173] That is, as a more preferred embodiment of the present invention, a polymer having the first unit, the second unit, and the third unit is mixed with the adhesive component (S). Thus, even if the polymer is mixed with the adhesive component (S), the mixture will not become turbid, and the turbidity of the polymer itself mixed with the adhesive component (S) can be prevented.

[0174] <<Ratio of each unit in (meth)acrylic acid polymer>>

[0175] In the (meth)acrylic polymer having the first unit and the second unit, the ratio of the first unit to the second unit can be appropriately set without particular limitation as long as the effect of the present invention is achieved. For example, the mass ratio of the first unit to the second unit is preferably 5:5 to 8:2.

[0176] In addition, in the (meth)acrylic polymer having the first unit, the second unit and the third unit, the ratio of the first unit, the second unit and the third unit can be appropriately set without particular limitation as long as the effect of the present invention is achieved. For example, the mass ratio of the first unit: the second unit: the third unit is preferably 1 to 8: 1 to 5: 1 to 2, more preferably 5 to 8: 2 to 5: 1 to 2, and particularly preferably 7: 2: 1.

[0177] <<Production of (meth)acrylic acid polymer>>

[0178] The monomers for preparing the first unit and the second unit (including the third unit if the third unit is included) are mixed. The mixture contains a compound having a (meth)acrylate group that undergoes free radical polymerization. Therefore, if a free radical initiator that generates free radicals by heat is mixed into the mixture and heated, a (meth)acrylic polymer including the first unit and the second unit (including the third unit if the third unit is included) can be prepared by free radical polymerization. It should be noted that a solvent may be further mixed into the above mixture for the purpose of adjusting the viscosity, etc.

[0179] As the thermal free radical initiator that generates free radicals by heat, there can be listed: compounds having a ketone peroxide structure, a peroxyketal structure, a hydroperoxide structure, a dialkyl peroxide structure, a diacyl peroxide structure, a peroxyester structure, a peroxydicarbonate structure or an azo structure, etc. It should be noted that if a thermal free radical initiator that generates gas when generating free radicals is used, voids may be generated, so as the thermal free radical initiator, a compound having a ketone peroxide structure, a peroxyketal structure, a hydroperoxide structure, a dialkyl peroxide structure, a diacyl peroxide structure, a peroxyester structure or a peroxydicarbonate structure is preferred.

[0189] <Other ingredients>

[0190] The adhesive composition of the present invention may contain a solvent for the purpose of adjusting the viscosity or dissolving the film-constituting components well.

[0191] Specific examples of the solvent are the same as those described in the above section "Preparation of (meth)acrylic polymer".

[0192] (Laminated body)

[0193] The laminated body of the present invention comprises a semiconductor substrate, a supporting substrate, and an adhesive layer for peeling by light irradiation.

[0194] The supporting substrate has light-transmitting properties.

[0195] The adhesive layer for light irradiation peeling is provided between the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate.

[0196] The laminate is used to separate the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate after the adhesive layer absorbs light irradiated from the supporting substrate side.

[0197] The adhesive layer for removal by light irradiation is a layer formed of the adhesive composition for removal by light irradiation of the present invention described above.

[0198] The laminate of the present invention is used for temporary bonding in order to process a semiconductor substrate, and can be suitably used for processing such as thinning of a semiconductor substrate.

[0199] While the semiconductor substrate is being processed such as thinning, the semiconductor substrate is supported by the support substrate via the adhesive layer. On the other hand, after the semiconductor substrate is processed, the adhesive layer is irradiated with light, and then the support substrate is separated from the semiconductor substrate.

[0200] The adhesive layer of the present invention makes it easy to peel off the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate after irradiation with light. Moreover, after the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate are peeled off, the residue of the adhesive layer remaining on the semiconductor substrate or the supporting substrate can be removed by, for example, a cleaning agent composition for cleaning the semiconductor substrate.

[0202] The light used for the stripping may be laser light or a non-laser light source such as an ultraviolet lamp.

[0203] <Semiconductor substrate>

[0204] The main material constituting the entire semiconductor substrate is not particularly limited as long as it can be used for such an application, and examples thereof include silicon, silicon carbide, and compound semiconductors.

[0205] The shape of the semiconductor substrate is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a disc-shaped semiconductor substrate. It should be noted that the disc-shaped semiconductor substrate does not need to have a completely circular surface shape, and for example, the periphery of the semiconductor substrate may have a straight portion called an orientation flat, or may have a cutout called a notch.

[0206] The thickness of the disk-shaped semiconductor substrate is not particularly limited and may be appropriately determined depending on the intended use of the semiconductor substrate, and is, for example, 500 to 1000 μm.

[0207] The diameter of the disk-shaped semiconductor substrate is not particularly limited and may be appropriately determined depending on the intended use of the semiconductor substrate, and is, for example, 100 to 1000 mm.

[0208] The semiconductor substrate may have a bump. A bump is a protruding terminal.

[0209] In the laminated body, when the semiconductor substrate has the bump, the semiconductor substrate has the bump on the supporting substrate side.

[0210] In a semiconductor substrate, bumps are usually formed on the surface where a circuit is formed. The circuit may be a single layer or a multilayer. There is no particular limitation on the shape of the circuit.

[0211] In the semiconductor substrate, the surface (back surface) opposite to the surface having the bumps is a surface to be processed.

[0212] The material, size, shape, structure, and density of the bumps included in the semiconductor substrate are not particularly limited.

[0213] Examples of the bump include a ball bump, a printed bump, a stud bump, and a plated bump.

[0214] Generally, the height, radius, and pitch of the bumps are appropriately determined based on the conditions that the bump height is about 1 to 200 μm, the bump radius is 1 to 200 μm, and the bump pitch is 1 to 500 μm.

[0215] Examples of materials for the bumps include low melting point solder, high melting point solder, tin, indium, gold, silver, copper, etc. The bumps may be made of a single component or multiple components. More specifically, SnAg bumps, SnBi bumps, Sn bumps, AuSn bumps, and other alloy platings based on Sn may be included.

[0216] Furthermore, the bump may have a stacked structure including a metal layer composed of at least any one of these components.

[0217] An example of a semiconductor substrate is a silicon wafer having a diameter of 300 mm and a thickness of about 770 μm.

[0218] <Support substrate>

[0219] The supporting substrate is not particularly limited as long as it is a member that is light-transmissive to the light irradiated to the adhesive layer and can support the semiconductor substrate when the semiconductor substrate is processed, and examples thereof include glass supporting substrates.

[0220] The shape of the support substrate is not particularly limited, and an example thereof may be a disk shape.

[0221] The thickness of the disk-shaped support substrate is not particularly limited and may be appropriately determined according to the size of the semiconductor substrate, etc., but is, for example, 500 to 1000 μm.

[0222] The diameter of the disk-shaped support substrate is not particularly limited and may be appropriately determined according to the size of the semiconductor substrate, etc., but is, for example, 100 to 1000 mm.

[0223] An example of the supporting substrate is a glass wafer having a diameter of 300 mm and a thickness of about 700 μm.

[0224] <Adhesive layer>

[0225] The adhesive layer is provided between the support substrate and the semiconductor substrate.

[0226] The adhesive layer is in contact with, for example, the semiconductor substrate or the supporting substrate.

[0227] The adhesive layer is formed using the adhesive composition for peeling by light irradiation of the present invention described above.

[0228] The adhesive composition of the present invention can be suitably used to form an adhesive layer of a laminate comprising: a semiconductor substrate, a support substrate, and an adhesive layer provided between the semiconductor substrate and the support substrate. The laminate is used to peel the semiconductor substrate and the support substrate after the adhesive layer absorbs light irradiated from the support substrate side.

[0229] One of the characteristics of the adhesive layer obtained from the adhesive composition of the present invention is that the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate can be easily peeled off after light irradiation.

[0230] The thickness of the adhesive layer is not particularly limited and is generally 5 to 500 μm. From the viewpoint of maintaining film strength, it is preferably 10 μm or more, more preferably 20 μm or more, and further preferably 30 μm or more. From the viewpoint of avoiding unevenness caused by a thick film, it is preferably 200 μm or less, more preferably 150 μm or less, further preferably 120 μm or less, and further preferably 70 μm or less.

[0231] The method for forming an adhesive layer from the adhesive composition is described in detail in the description of the <Method for Producing a Laminated Body> described below.

[0232] The laminated body of the present invention can be suitably produced, for example, by the following method for producing a laminated body of the present invention.

[0233] An example of the laminate will be described below using the drawings.

[0234] Figure 1 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of an example of a laminate.

[0235] Figure 1 The laminated body includes a semiconductor substrate 1, an adhesive layer 2, and a support substrate 3 in this order.

[0236] The adhesive layer 2 is provided between the semiconductor substrate 1 and the support substrate 3. The adhesive layer 2 is in contact with the semiconductor substrate 1 and the support substrate 3.

[0237] <Method for producing laminate>

[0238] The laminate of the present invention can be manufactured, for example, by the following method, which comprises: a first step, applying the adhesive composition on the surface of any one of the above-mentioned semiconductor substrate and the above-mentioned supporting substrate, and heating it if necessary to form an adhesive coating layer; and a second step, laminating the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate together via the adhesive coating layer, while performing at least any one of a heating treatment and a decompression treatment, while laminating the semiconductor substrate, the adhesive coating layer and the supporting substrate.

[0239] When the second step is described in more detail, the steps of the following embodiment (i) or the following embodiment (ii) can be cited.

[0240] (i) When the adhesive composition is coated on the surface of a semiconductor substrate, the adhesive coating layer of the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate are subjected to at least one of a heating treatment and a pressure reduction treatment while a load in the thickness direction of the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate is applied to make them closely attached, and then a post-heating treatment is performed, thereby forming a laminate.

[0241] (ii) When the adhesive composition is coated on the surface of a supporting substrate, the adhesive coating layer of the supporting substrate and the semiconductor substrate are subjected to at least one of a heating treatment and a pressure reduction treatment while a load in the thickness direction of the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate is applied to make them closely attached, and then a post-heating treatment is performed, thereby forming a laminate.

[0242] The coating method is not particularly limited, but is usually a spin coating method. It is also possible to form a coating film separately by a spin coating method or the like, and to attach the coating film in a sheet form as the adhesive coating layer.

[0243] The heating temperature of the applied adhesive composition varies depending on the type and amount of the adhesive components contained in the adhesive composition; whether a solvent is contained; the boiling point of the solvent used; the desired thickness of the adhesive layer, etc., and therefore cannot be generally specified, but is usually 80 to 200°C, and the heating time is usually 30 seconds to 10 minutes.

[0244] When the adhesive composition contains a solvent, the adhesive composition after application is usually heated.

[0245] Heating can be performed using a hot plate, an oven, or the like.

[0246] The thickness of the adhesive coating layer obtained by applying the adhesive composition and heating it if necessary is generally about 5 to 500 μm, and is appropriately determined so as to finally be within the above-mentioned thickness range of the adhesive layer.

[0247] In the present invention, the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate can be combined in a manner of contacting with the adhesive layer, and a load in the thickness direction of the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate is applied to make the two layers close to each other while performing a heating treatment or a decompression treatment or both, and then a post-heating treatment is performed, thereby obtaining the laminate of the present invention. It should be noted that the treatment conditions of any of the heating treatment, the decompression treatment, and the combination of the two are appropriately determined based on various situations such as the type of the adhesive composition, the specific composition of the stripper composition, the phase of the film obtained from the two compositions, the film thickness, and the bonding strength to be obtained.

[0248] The heating treatment is usually appropriately determined within the range of 20 to 150° C. from the viewpoint of removing the solvent when the composition contains a solvent, softening the adhesive coating layer and achieving appropriate bonding with the release agent coating layer, etc. In particular, from the viewpoint of suppressing or avoiding excessive curing and unnecessary deterioration of the adhesive component (S), it is preferably 130° C. or less, more preferably 90° C. or less, and the heating time is appropriately determined depending on the heating temperature and the type of adhesive, and is usually 30 seconds or more, preferably 1 minute or more, from the viewpoint of reliably achieving appropriate bonding, and is usually 10 minutes or less, preferably 5 minutes or less, from the viewpoint of suppressing deterioration of the adhesive layer and other members.

[0249] The reduced pressure treatment may be carried out by exposing the adhesive coating layer to a gas pressure of 10 to 10000 Pa. The time for the reduced pressure treatment is usually 1 to 30 minutes.

[0250] The load in the thickness direction of the semiconductor substrate and the support substrate is not particularly limited as long as it does not adversely affect the semiconductor substrate and the support substrate and the two layers therebetween and allows them to be firmly adhered to each other, but is usually in the range of 10 to 1000N.

[0251] From the viewpoint of achieving a sufficient curing speed, the post-heating temperature is preferably 120° C. or higher, and from the viewpoint of preventing deterioration of the substrate and each layer, the post-heating temperature is preferably 260° C. or lower.

[0252] From the perspective of achieving proper bonding between the substrate and the layers constituting the laminate, the post-heating time is usually more than 1 minute, preferably more than 5 minutes. From the perspective of suppressing or avoiding the adverse effects of excessive heating on the layers, the post-heating time is usually less than 180 minutes, preferably less than 120 minutes.

[0253] Heating can be performed using a hot plate, an oven, etc. When post-heating is performed using a hot plate, the semiconductor substrate and the support substrate of the stack can be heated with either side facing downward. From the perspective of achieving appropriate peeling with good reproducibility, post-heating is preferably performed with the semiconductor substrate facing downward.

[0254] It should be noted that one of the purposes of the post-heat treatment is to realize a more appropriate adhesive layer as a self-supporting film, and in particular, to appropriately realize curing by a hydrosilylation reaction.

[0255] (Method for manufacturing processed semiconductor substrate)

[0256] The method for manufacturing a processed semiconductor substrate of the present invention includes a third step and a fourth step.

[0257] The third step is a step of processing the semiconductor substrate of the laminated body of the present invention.

[0258] The fourth step is a step of separating the semiconductor substrate processed in the third step from the support substrate.

[0259] In the third step, the processing performed on the semiconductor substrate refers to, for example, the processing on the opposite side of the circuit surface of the wafer, and the thinning of the wafer by grinding the back side of the wafer can be cited. Then, through silicon vias (TSV) and the like are formed, and then the thinned wafer is peeled off from the supporting substrate to form a stack of wafers for three-dimensional mounting. In addition, the formation of the back electrode of the wafer and the like is also performed before and after the three-dimensional mounting. In the thinning and TSV processes of the wafer, heat of about 250 to 350°C is applied in a state bonded to the supporting substrate. The stack of the present invention generally includes an adhesive layer having heat resistance to the load.

[0260] It should be noted that the processing is not limited to the above processing, and includes, for example, a semiconductor component mounting process when temporary bonding with a support substrate is performed in order to support a base material for mounting a semiconductor component.

[0261] In the fourth step, the method of separating (peeling) the semiconductor substrate from the support substrate includes, but is not limited to, mechanical peeling using a tool having a sharp portion after irradiating the adhesive layer with light, peeling by tearing between the support and the wafer, and the like.

[0262] By irradiating the adhesive layer with light from the support substrate side, the adhesive layer is altered (eg, separated or decomposed) as described above, and then, for example, one of the substrates is pulled up to easily separate the semiconductor substrate from the support substrate.

[0263] The irradiation of the adhesive layer with light does not necessarily need to be performed on the entire area of ​​the adhesive layer. Even if the areas irradiated with light and the areas not irradiated with light are mixed, as long as the peeling ability of the adhesive layer as a whole is sufficiently improved, the semiconductor substrate can be separated from the supporting substrate by a slight external force such as pulling up the supporting substrate. The ratio and positional relationship of the areas irradiated with light and the areas not irradiated with light vary depending on the type of adhesive used, its specific composition; the thickness of the adhesive layer; the intensity of the irradiated light, etc., but if a person skilled in the art is skilled in the art, appropriate conditions can be set without excessive experiments. Due to such a situation, according to the method for manufacturing a processed semiconductor substrate of the present invention, for example, when the supporting substrate of the stacked body used is light-transmissive, the light irradiation time can be shortened when peeling is performed by irradiating light from the supporting substrate side. As a result, not only can an improvement in throughput be expected, but also physical stress used for peeling can be avoided, and the semiconductor substrate can be easily and efficiently separated from the supporting substrate only by irradiation with light.

[0264] Generally, the irradiation dose of light used for peeling is 50 to 3000 mJ / cm 2 The irradiation time is appropriately determined according to the wavelength and the irradiation amount.

[0265] The wavelength of the light used for stripping is preferably 250 to 600 nm, and more preferably 250 to 370 nm, as described above. More suitable wavelengths are 308 nm, 343 nm, 355 nm, 365 nm, or 532 nm. The irradiation amount of light required for stripping is an irradiation amount that causes appropriate deterioration of the specific light absorbing compound, such as decomposition.

[0266] The light used for the stripping may be laser light or a non-laser light source such as an ultraviolet lamp.

[0267] The cleaning composition may be sprayed on the surface of at least any one of the separated semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate, or the separated semiconductor substrate or the supporting substrate may be immersed in the cleaning composition to clean the substrate.

[0268] Alternatively, the surface of a processed semiconductor substrate or the like may be cleaned using a removal tape or the like.

[0269] The constituent elements and method elements related to the above-mentioned steps of the method for manufacturing a processed semiconductor substrate of the present invention may be variously modified without departing from the gist of the present invention.

[0270] The method for producing a processed semiconductor substrate of the present invention may include steps other than the above-mentioned steps.

[0271] In the peeling step of the present invention, when the semiconductor substrate or the supporting substrate of the laminate of the present invention is light-transmissive, the semiconductor substrate and the supporting substrate of the laminate are separated by irradiating the adhesive layer with light from the semiconductor substrate side or the supporting substrate side.

[0272] In the laminate of the present invention, the semiconductor substrate and the support substrate are temporarily bonded appropriately and releasably by the adhesive layer, so that, for example, when the support substrate is light-transmissive, the semiconductor substrate and the support substrate can be easily separated by irradiating the adhesive layer with light from the support substrate side of the laminate. Usually, the peeling is performed after the semiconductor substrate of the laminate is processed.
