Hi Kevin,

Maybe worth to look at the laser dicing technique. Discoeruope is an interesting
one.

Subject: [mems-talk] dicing particle contamination

Hello

We've been struggling with particles getting embedded in our delicate silicon
comb structures during dicing. Our current process involves spraying on a 10um
thick layer of photoresist over the entire wafer and then do a soft bake. After
dicing we rinse the wafer to remove particles before stripping off the resist.
However we're still getting particles stuck in-between the comb fingers. We've
attempted ultrasonic cleaning but that damages the combs.

Any tips to remove or prevent particles would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
Kevin Chang
