US Patent 10923357 Element chip and manufacturing process thereof

Provided is a manufacturing process of an element chip, which comprises a preparation step, a setting step for setting the substrate on a stage, and a plasma-dicing step for dividing the substrate into a plurality of element chips, wherein the plasma-dicing step is achieved by repeatedly implementing etching routines each including an etching step for etching the second layer along the street regions to form a plurality of grooves and a depositing step for depositing a protective film on inner walls of the grooves, wherein the plasma-dicing step includes a first etching step for forming the grooves each having a first scallop on the inner wall thereof at a first pitch, and a second etching step for forming the grooves each having a second scallop on the inner wall thereof at a second pitch, and wherein the second pitch is greater than the first pitch.
