ABSTRACT:
A method of fabricating a silicon semiconductor discrete wafer is disclosed that assures excellent finishing accuracy and productivity. The method for fabricating a discrete wafer having a double-layer structure including an impurity diffused layer at one side and an impurity non-diffused layer at the opposite side includes cutting a wafer, having one of the impurity diffused layers formed on both surfaces of the silicon semiconductor wafer and having an oxide film formed on the surface of the diffused layer, into two pieces at the center of thickness with an ID saw slicing machine. Then, both surfaces of the cutting surface are ground to a predetermined thickness with a surface grinding machine, and the grinding surfaces are lapped with abrasive grains having a count of at least #2000 and no more than #6000. The processing surface is wet-etched as the final processing.
