Abstract

Disclosed is a method for processing a device wafer, in which a device layer, the device layer constituting devices, is stacked on a base material and the devices are formed, respectively, in regions defined by a plurality of intersecting streets on a front surface of the base material. The method includes a first step of dividing the device layer along the streets, a second step of dividing the base material by plasma etching along the streets, and a third step of, before performing at least the second step, forming half-cut grooves by a cutting blade or a laser beam in the base material along the streets, respectively, from a side of a front surface or a side of a back surface of the device wafer. The third and second steps are performed from the side of the same surface of the device wafer.
