Abstract
A method of processing a warped workpiece includes a warpage eliminating step of applying a laser beam whose wavelength is transmittable through the workpiece to the workpiece while positioning a focused spot of the laser beam in the workpiece at a predetermined first position thicknesswise across the workpiece, thereby forming modified layers in the workpiece and cracks extending from the modified layers to a lower surface of the workpiece along all of projected dicing lines on the workpiece, thereby eliminating the warpage from the workpiece, and a modified layer forming step of, after the warpage eliminating step, applying the laser beam to the workpiece while positioning the focused spot of the laser beam in the workpiece at a position above the first position away from the lower surface of the workpiece, thereby forming modified layers in the workpiece along the projected dicing lines.
