Patent ID: 10957537

Abstract:
A method of forming concurrently openings in a substrate or wafer or a portion of substrate or wafer openings therein at least one of the openings has a relatively high aspect ratio and another one of the openings has a relatively low aspect ratio, the method comprising: bonding the substrate or wafer or a portion of substrate or wafer to a carrier substrate; forming a ring trench in the substrate or wafer or in a portion of the substrate or wafer, the ring trench having an outer perimeter that corresponds an outer perimeter of the another one of the openings having said relatively low aspect ratio and having an inner perimeter spaced from the outer perimeter by a predetermined distance; forming an opening in said substrate or wafer or in a portion of substrate or wafer having said high aspect ratio concurrently with the forming of the ring trench; and separating the substrate or wafer or in a portion of the substrate or wafer from the carrier substrate.
