Abstract
A laser processing apparatus is provided wherein a laser beam of a wavelength which passes through a wafer having a surface on which a plurality of devices are disposed is irradiated along a schedule division line to separate the adjacent devices from each other to form a modification layer which continuously extends in a given length in the inside of the wafer. A mark portion is displayed in an overlapping relationship with a picked up image obtained by image pickup of a wafer on a display unit. If the mark portion is moved to a desired position of the picked up image displayed on the display unit, then coordinates which correspond to the desired position of the picked up image are stored as a start point or an end portion of a scheduled division line, along which the modification layer is to be formed, into a storage unit.
