TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to wafer cutting angle device technical field, specifically relates to a wafer film press cutting angle device. BACKGROUND
[0002] Wafer refers to the silicon wafer used for making silicon semiconductor integrated circuit, and is called wafer because of its circular shape. Various circuit element structures can be processed on the silicon wafer to become integrated circuit products with specific electrical properties.
[0003] The wafer must be pressed to perform subsequent exposure, development and other processes. In the film pressing process, a single chip is first placed on a substrate treated with temporary bonding material or thermal release tape (TRT), and then an epoxy resin molding compound (EMC) is used for molding and curing, and then the excess film on the edge of the wafer is cut.
[0004] The notch of the silicon wafer is a physical cut for identifying the direction of the wafer, usually V-shaped or U-shaped, located at the bottom of the edge of the silicon wafer, accurate in position and easy to read by the machine. This feature is common in 8, 12 and 18 inch wafers, and is used to replace the flat edge (flat) used on earlier smaller size wafers. After the silicon ingot is made, a flat corner is cut on the silicon ingot below 200mm, called Flat (flat groove). On silicon ingots above 200mm, in order to reduce waste, only a V-shaped small notch is cut, called Notch (V-groove), and the V-groove also needs to be cut off after film pressing.
