Wafer lapping is a global planarization process that improves wafer flatness by removing surface damage, often from backside grinding. It is most common on silicon wafers, although certain applications require gallium arsenide (GaAs) and indium phosphide (InP) wafers to undergo this process as well.

Most wafer grinding systems utilize the rotational in-feed grinding method to keep the contact area unchanged and thereby deliver a stable grinding performance throughout the grinding process (Zhou, et al., 2002). During grinding, the Si wafer was mounted on a porous ceramic vacuum chuck, and sufficient purified water was applied to the grinding

Abstract: Silicon wafer thinning is mostly performed by self-rotating grinding process. In grinding, the grinding force is a crucial factor of affecting the machining accuracy and surface/subsurface quality. In this paper, a novel apparatus and method are developed to measure the grinding force in silicon wafer self-rotating grinding process.
