Back grinding of wafer with outer rim (BGWOR) is a new method for carrier-less thinning of silicon wafers. At present, the effects of process parameters on the grinding force remain debatable. Therefore, a BGWOR normal grinding force model based on grain depth-of-cut was established, and the relationship between grinding …

Wafer warping from a grinding-based thinning process is reportedly related to grinding damage and residual stresses. Assuming a uniform layer of grinding-induced damage, Zhou et al. [5] proposed a mathematical model using the Stoney formula, in which wafer warp was a function of damage depth, residual stress and wafer thickness.

When the wafer is thick, super fine grinding can be performed, but the thinner the wafer is, the more necessary the grinding is to be carried out. If a wafer becomes even thinner, external defects occur during the sawing process. For this reason, if the thickness of a wafer is 50㎛ or less, the process order can be changed.

Inclusion of etched-wafer fine grinding into a process flow makes economic sense only if the cost reduction is greater than the added cost. For example, when flatness specifications are not very tight, a process flow with etched-wafer fine grinding will not make significant differences compared with a process flow without etched-wafer fine ...

The thinning of wafers is called grinding. As a rule, the grinding process takes place in several steps, each with a finer grain of the grinding wheels. On the one hand, this serves to optimize the process duration and, on the other hand, to reduce the damage to the crystal caused by grinding in the crystal.
