Abstract
A wafer processing method includes a wafer providing step of placing a polyolefin or polyester sheet on an upper surface of a substrate for supporting a wafer and placing the wafer on an upper surface of the sheet in a condition where a back side of the wafer is exposed upward, a thermocompression bonding step of setting the wafer placed through the sheet on the substrate in an enclosed environment, next evacuating the enclosed environment, and next heating the sheet as applying a pressure to the wafer, thereby uniting the wafer through the sheet to the substrate by thermocompression bonding, a back processing step of processing the back side of the wafer supported through the sheet to the substrate, and a separating step of separating the wafer from the sheet bonded to the substrate.
