Abstract
A semiconductor substrate having dot marks is provided. Particularly, a semiconductor substrate having dot marks having an improved reading rate is provided. In a semiconductor substrate having a plurality of dot marks formed of recess portions having an inverted frustum shape, the plurality of dot marks constitutes a two-dimensional code disposed in a rectangular region of 0.25 mmto 9 mm, the diameter W of the recess portion on the surface of the semiconductor substrate is 20 μm to 200 μm, is larger than the diameter w of the bottom surface of the recess portion, and is smaller than the thickness of the semiconductor substrate, the side surface of the recess portion has four or more trapezoidal flat taper surfaces, and the taper angle of the taper surface is in a range of 44° to 65° with respect to the surface of the semiconductor substrate.
