Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a laser processing method includes irradiating a region of a substrate with first laser light having a first pulse width greater than ten nanoseconds and irradiating the region substrate with second laser light having a second pulse width less than the first pulse width. In some embodiments, the region may be irradiated with the first and second laser lights simultaneously. In other embodiments, the irradiation with first laser light may occur before the irradiation with the second laser light.

Claim (Index 17):
A method of dicing a semiconductor wafer, comprising:\n exposing a region of a semiconductor wafer between two die formed on the semiconductor wafer to a first laser light having a pulse width greater than ten nanoseconds; exposing the region to a second laser light having a pulse width greater than one femtosecond and less than one nanosecond; and separating the two die from each other after exposing the region to first and second laser lights.
