METHOD FOR THE MATERIAL-SAVING PRODUCTION OF WAFERS AND PROCESSING OF WAFERS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for producing a multi-component wafer, in particular a MEMS wafer. The method according to the invention comprises at least the following steps: providing a bonding wafer (2), wherein at least one surface portion (4) of the bonding wafer (2) is formed by an oxide film, providing a dispenser wafer (6), wherein the dispenser wafer (6) is thicker than the bonding wafer (2), bringing the dispenser wafer (6) into contact with the surface portion (4) of the bonding wafer (2) that is formed by the oxide film, forming a multilayer arrangement (8) by connecting the dispenser wafer (6) and the bonding wafer (2) in the region of the contact, producing modifications (18) in the interior of the dispenser wafer (6) for predefining a detachment region (11) for separating the multilayer arrangement (8) into a detaching part (14) and a connecting part (16), wherein the production of the modifications (18) takes place before the formation of the multilayer arrangement (8) or after the formation of the multilayer arrangement (8), separating the multilayer arrangement along the detachment region as a result of a weakening of the multilayer arrangement brought about by the production of a sufficient number of modifications or as a result of production of mechanical stresses in the multilayer arrangement, wherein the connecting part (16) remains on the bonding wafer (2) and wherein the split-off detachment part (14) has a greater thickness than the connecting part (16).
