Definitions
- the present invention is directed to a method to obtain a near planar topography around the wafer coding area for removing photoresist; and, more particularly to remove pattern defects which will affects the yield arising from the non-planar topography near the wafer coding area.
- Wafer Edge Exclusion is used to remove the photoresist such as at the wafer coding area, leaving the layer beneath the photoresist exposed. In this way the exposed layer will be etched away during the etching process. However, since all the layers at the WEE area are etched away, the overall thickness of this area would be lesser than the other area/s. This causes the photoresist thickness at WEE area to differ during photoresist coating. Therefore, the thickness of the photoresist is thinner at the edge of WEE as compared to the rest of the wafer. This is illustrated in figure 1.
- the photoresist produces smaller patterns (metal lines / via holes) and at some instances completely breaks the line or merges the holes during the wafer patterning process step. This problem is carried on to the next step of etching.
- the thin photoresist is unable to provide enough protection to the layers beneath it thus causing over etching. This will cause pattern defect on the layers being etched
- a primary object of the present invention to provide an improved method capable of obtaining a near planar topography around the wafer coding area, which further reduces the occurrences of metal pattern defects around the wafer coding area.
- a method for selective exposing one or more parts of the wafer using a WEE process is provided.
- Wafer Edge Exposure is used to remove resist at the wafer coding area so that the wafer coding can be visible throughout the wafer processing.
- WEE Wafer Edge Exposure
- Figure 1 shows the resultant cross section when WEE is used at all layers. A severe topography gradient is visible at the edge of the WEE valley.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un procédé pour éliminer une photorésine à l'aide de l'exclusion de bords d'une tranche (WEE) à partir du codage de tranche. La WEE est utilisée au niveau de couches sélectives de la tranche afin de réduire le défaut topographique autour de la zone de codage de tranche.
