Wafer and package product manufacturing method
A wafer is provided that is stacked on and anodically bonded to another wafer to form a plurality of package products each having a cavity in which an operation piece is contained between the wafers. The wafers has a product area in which a plurality of concave portions are formed each of which will be part of the cavity when stacked on the another wafer, and grooves or slits are formed extending from the central portion in radial direction to the outside in radial direction of the wafer and reaching the outside of the product area.
1. A stacked wafer assembly including a first wafer anodically bonded to a second wafer and defining a plurality of package products each having a cavity enclosing an operation piece, the assembly comprising:
a product area in the first wafer including a plurality of concave portions each comprising a portion of the cavity in the stacked wafer assembly, the product area having an outer perimeter with respect to a geometric center of the first wafer; and
the first wafer further including grooves or slits extending from a proximal portion at the geometric center of the first wafer in a radial direction toward a perimeter of the first wafer, the grooves or slits extending beyond the outer perimeter of the product area to a distal terminal portion located proximal to the perimeter of the first wafer.
2. A package product manufacturing method of stacking and anodically bonding first and second wafers to each other to form a plurality of package products each having a cavity in which an operation piece is contained therein, wherein the wafer is arranged according to the first wafer of claim 1 .
