Abstract
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes preparing a semiconductor wafer including a silicon substrate and a laminate having a compound semiconductor layer; etching and removing a part of the laminate in a thickness direction to form trench regions in a grid, each trench region including a plurality of stripe grooves extending in parallel to each other; filling the groove with a material having a lower hardness than the compound semiconductor layer to form a buried region; and dividing the semiconductor wafer into a plurality of chips by dicing using a blade at a dicing line which is defined within the trench region and includes a plurality of the buried regions.
