Abstract
The invention relates to a method for applying adjusting marks on a semiconductor disk. A small part structure consisting a non-metal is produced in an extensive metal layer and the semiconductor disk is subsequently planed in said region with the help of chemical and mechanical polishing. The structural sizes in the metal layer and the chemical-mechanical polishing process are adjusted to each other, in such a way that the small part non-metal structure protrudes above the extensive metal layer after polishing.
