Abstract
A semiconductor wafer includes semiconductor dies and laser grooves formed in the scribe lines along the long edges of the semiconductor dies. A laser groove extends between the long edges of two adjacent semiconductor dies to encompass the corners of the two adjacent semiconductor dies. When diced, the resulting semiconductor dies have portions of the corners removed.
