Abstract
A processing method for a wafer having a chamfered portion on an outer circumference thereof includes a step of irradiating a laser beam of a transmission wavelength to the wafer along an outer circumferential edge of the wafer at a position on an inner side of a predetermined distance from the outer circumferential edge of the wafer to form an annular modified region having a depth from a front face of the wafer to a finish thickness, a step of irradiating a laser beam of a transmission wavelength to the wafer on an outer circumferential portion of the wafer to radially form a plurality of modified regions having the depth from the front face of the wafer to the finish thickness on the outer circumferential portion of the wafer, and a step of grinding a back face of the wafer to thin the wafer to the finish thickness.
