LASER CONDITIONING OF SOLID BODIES USING PRIOR KNOWLEDGE FROM PREVIOUS MACHINING STEPS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for generating control data for the secondary machining of a solid body (1), in particular wafer, which is modified by means of laser beams (10). The interior of said solid body (1) has multiple modifications (12), said modifications (12) having been produced by means of laser beams (10). The method comprises the following steps: defining a criterion of analysis for analyzing the modifications (12) produced in the interior of the solid body (1); defining a threshold value with respect to the criterion of analysis, an analytical value on one side of the threshold value triggering a secondary machining registration; analyzing the wafer by means of an analytical unit (4), said analytical unit (4) analyzing the modifications (12) with respect to the criterion of analysis and outputting analytical values regarding the analyzed modifications, said analytical values lying above or below the threshold value; outputting location data with respect to the analyzed modifications, said location data containing information regarding in which region(s) of the solid body (1) the analytical value lie above or below the threshold value; and generating control data for controlling a laser treatment device (11) for the secondary machining of the solid body (1), said control data comprising at least the location data of the modifications (12) registered for secondary machining.
