Overview

The LD12 debond module supplements the SUSS MicroTec product portfolio for laser-based wafer processing. It is based on the application of an excimer laser which uses nanosecond, high energy 308 nm laser pulses to break the chemical bonds in a release layer or the actual adhesive which holds the glass carrier to the device wafer. This excimer laser based debonding process does not produce significant thermal stress and therefore ensures the integrity of sensitive components. The LD12 module is designed to debond glass carriers from full thickness wafers or thinned 200 mm and 300mm wafers which are mounted on tape frames. Using the LD12 enables high throughput debonding for applications in 2.5D and 3D integration, 3D MEMS and CIS, as well as in the field of power devices to be carried out quickly and carefully.
