Abstract:
1. A method comprising: providing a substrate including a first die, a second die, and a monitor structure, the substrate further including a first dielectric material between the monitor structure and the first die and between the monitor structure and the second die, and the monitor structure including a second dielectric material; forming a first photoresist layer over the first die, the second die, the monitor structure, and the first dielectric material; patterning the first photoresist layer to reveal the first dielectric material between the monitor structure and the first die, and between the monitor structure and the second die; etching the first dielectric material between the monitor structure and the first die, and between the monitor structure and the second die; removing the first photoresist layer after etching the first dielectric material; forming a second photoresist layer over the first die, the second die, the monitor structure, and the first dielectric material; patterning the second photoresist layer to reveal the monitor structure; etching the second dielectric material from the monitor structure; and cutting the substrate between the first die and the second die to separate the first die from the second die.
