Abstract
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device that includes steps of: (1) adhering a support substrate to a first surface of a wafer using an adhesive, the wafer including first and second scribe lines extending along first and second directions, respectively, (2) thinning the wafer, (3) forming a groove in a first scribe line excluding a region located in an outer peripheral portion of the wafer, the groove piercing the wafer from the first surface to a second surface opposite to the first surface to expose the adhesive, the first scribe line and the second scribe line demarcating chip regions; and (4) removing the adhesive by immersing the wafer adhered to the support substrate in a solvent such that the solvent permeates into the groove.
