Abstract
An inspecting device includes a stage configured to support a wafer in which a plurality of rows of modified regions are formed in a semiconductor substrate, a light source configured to output light, an objective lens configured to pass light propagated through the semiconductor substrate, a light detection part configured to detect light passing through the objective lens, and an inspection part configured to inspect whether or not there is a tip of a fracture in an inspection region between a front surface and the modified region closest to the front surface of the semiconductor substrate. The objective lens positions a virtual focus symmetrical with a focus with respect to the front surface in the inspection region. The light detection part detects light propagating from the back surface side of the semiconductor substrate to the back surface side via the front surface.
