dc.description.abstractThe aim of this letter is to calculate the mechanical grinding induced bow and stress in ultrathin silicon wafers. The reverse leakage current of a p-n junction diode fabricated on a 4 in. silicon wafer was measured for wafers thinned to various thicknesses. A correlation with the residual stress was obtained through band gap narrowing effect. The analytical results were compared with experimental bow measurements using a laser profiler. The bow in 50 mu m thick wafer was found to be less than 2 mm using the current grinding process. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics. (DOI:10.1063/1.2336212)en
