ABSTRACT:
A bonded wafer27and a residual wafer28are placed in a state of being superimposed on each other on a susceptor20disposed in a heat treatment10. A Bernoulli chuck1is moved to a wafer holding position60on a susceptor20by driving an arm56, sucks the bonded wafer27positioned on the upper side and then moves to a bonded wafer recovery table50′ to recover the bonded wafer there. Then, similarly, the Bernoulli chuck1suction holds the residual wafer28at the wafer holding position60and then moves to a residual wafer recovery table50″ to recover the residual wafer there. With such a construction adopted, in a method for manufacturing a bonded wafer according to a so-called smart-cut method, not only is the separated bonded wafer recovered suppressing occurrence of a defect, deficiency and contamination, but there is also provided a method for manufacturing a bonded wafer capable of automation suitable for mass production.
