Abstract
According to one embodiment, a dicing method is provided. The dicing method includes detecting a first distance between a first portion of a substrate and a first substrate information detection unit. The method also includes detecting a second distance between a second portion of the substrate a second substrate information detection unit, the second portion different from the first portion. Distance information is calculated between the substrate and a processing lens, which is located farther from the second substrate information detection unit than from the first substrate information detection unit, based on the detected first distance and the detected second distance, and he substrate is irradiated with laser light from the processing lens based on the distance information.
