Description

<Structure of Inorganic Film Laminated Resin Substrate>
FIG. 1 is a perspective view schematically showing the configuration of the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W which is the object of division according to the present embodiment. The inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is formed by coating an inorganic film 2 on a resin substrate 1. Examples of the material of the resin substrate 1 include polyimide and polyamide. As the inorganic film 2, a glass film made of SiO 2 or SiNx is exemplified. It is a preferable example that the resin substrate 1 has a thickness of about 10 μm to 100 μm, and the inorganic film 2 has a thickness of about 0.1 μm to 1 μm. In addition, the ratio of the size of each part shown in FIG. 1 and each subsequent figure does not always match the actual one.

より詳細には、樹脂基板1の一方主面には、それぞれが0.1μm~1μm程度の幅を有する多数の金属配線3が0.05μm~0.5μm程度の厚みに形成されてなり、無機膜2は、係る金属配線3を腐食などから保護するコーティング膜として、当該一方主面上に形成されてなる。 More specifically, on one main surface of the resin substrate 1, a large number of metal wirings 3 each having a width of about 0.1 μm to 1 μm are formed to a thickness of about 0.05 μm to 0.5 μm, and are inorganic. The film 2 is formed on one of the main surfaces as a coating film that protects the metal wiring 3 from corrosion and the like.

本実施の形態においては、このような無機膜積層樹脂基板Wを、あらかじめ定められたストリートSTと称される所定幅の領域にて分断する加工を行うものとする。なお、ストリートSTは金属配線3を横断する態様にて定められてなるものとする。また、ストリートSTの幅方向の中心位置を、ストリート中心Cと称する。 In the present embodiment, such an inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is processed to be divided into a predetermined width region called a predetermined street ST. It should be noted that the street ST is defined so as to cross the metal wiring 3. Further, the center position in the width direction of the street ST is referred to as a street center C.

なお、図1および以降の図においては、樹脂基板1の表面に同一形状の4つの金属配線3が並行に設けられてなり、それら金属配線3に直交する態様にて1つのストリートSTが示されているが、これらはあくまで説明のためのものであり、実際の無機膜積層樹脂基板Wにおいては、より複雑な形状の金属配線が多数形成され、かつ、多数の箇所にストリートSTが設定されていてもよい。 In addition, in FIG. 1 and the following figures, four metal wirings 3 having the same shape are provided in parallel on the surface of the resin substrate 1, and one street ST is shown in a manner orthogonal to the metal wirings 3. However, these are just for explanation, and in the actual inorganic film laminated resin substrate W, many metal wirings having a more complicated shape are formed, and street STs are set in many places. You may.

<無機膜積層樹脂基板の二段階分断>
本実施の形態においては、無機膜積層樹脂基板WのストリートSTにおける分断を、レーザ光の照射による無機膜の剥離と、スクライビングホイールの圧接転動による樹脂基板1のスクライブとの二段階で行う。本実施の形態においては、係る態様での分断を、二段階分断と称する。
<Two-stage division of inorganic film laminated resin substrate>
In the present embodiment, the splitting of the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W in the street ST is performed in two steps: peeling of the inorganic film by irradiation with a laser beam and scribe of the resin substrate 1 by pressure contact rolling of the scribing wheel. In the present embodiment, the division in such an embodiment is referred to as a two-stage division.

図2は、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wに対しレーザ光LBを照射する際の様子を示す図である。また、図3は、レーザ光LBが無機膜積層樹脂基板Wに対し照射される際の様子を示す模式断面図である。ただし、図2および図3においては、レーザ光LBの光源、光学系、および出射源の図示は省略している。 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a state when the laser beam LB is irradiated to the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W. Further, FIG. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a state in which the laser beam LB is applied to the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W. However, in FIGS. 2 and 3, the light source, the optical system, and the emission source of the laser beam LB are not shown.

無機膜積層樹脂基板Wを分断するにあたってはまず、図2に示すように、無機膜2の上方から、当該表面における集光径dがストリートSTの幅tと同程度かやや小さいレーザ光LBを照射し、かつ、レーザ光LBのビーム中心がストリート中心Cと一致させる態様にて、矢印AR1にて示すようにストリートSTに沿って走査する。なお、ストリートSTの幅tは通常10μm~100μm程度(例えば50μm)に設定される。 In dividing the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W, first, as shown in FIG. 2, a laser beam LB whose light collecting diameter d on the surface is about the same as or slightly smaller than the width t of the street ST is applied from above the inorganic film 2. The laser beam LB is irradiated and scanned along the street ST as shown by the arrow AR1 in such a manner that the beam center of the laser beam LB coincides with the street center C. The width t of the street ST is usually set to about 10 μm to 100 μm (for example, 50 μm).

レーザ光LBとしては、樹脂基板1に吸収されるものを用いる。樹脂基板1がポリイミド基板である場合、UVレーザを用いるのが好適な一例である。樹脂基板1の材質によっては、COレーザや、グリーンレーザや、IRレーザなどを用いる態様であってもよい。 As the laser beam LB, one that is absorbed by the resin substrate 1 is used. When the resin substrate 1 is a polyimide substrate, it is a preferable example to use a UV laser. Depending on the material of the resin substrate 1, a CO 2 laser, a green laser, an IR laser, or the like may be used.

レーザ光LBの照射は、樹脂基板1のうち無機膜2との界面近傍部分においてのみ、吸収が生じる程度の照射条件にて照射される。換言すれば、係る照射条件は、無機膜積層樹脂基板W全体の分断までは行い得ない条件である。 Irradiation of the laser beam LB is performed under irradiation conditions to the extent that absorption occurs only in the portion of the resin substrate 1 near the interface with the inorganic film 2. In other words, the irradiation condition is a condition that cannot be performed until the entire inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is divided.

樹脂基板1がポリイミド基板であり、レーザ光LBがUVレーザである場合であれば、例えば、パルス幅10ピコ秒~100ナノ秒、繰り返し周波数1kHz~200kHz、走査速度50~500mm/秒なる照射条件にてレーザ光LBを照射するのが好ましい。 When the resin substrate 1 is a polyimide substrate and the laser beam LB is a UV laser, for example, irradiation conditions such as a pulse width of 10 picoseconds to 100 nanoseconds, a repetition frequency of 1 kHz to 200 kHz, and a scanning speed of 50 to 500 mm / sec. It is preferable to irradiate the laser beam LB with.

なお、レーザ光LBが樹脂基板1に到達するまでの間に無機膜2にて吸収される態様であってもよいが、無機膜2がガラス膜でレーザ光LBがUVレーザである場合、レーザ光LBは無機膜2をほぼ透過する。 The mode may be such that the laser light LB is absorbed by the inorganic film 2 until it reaches the resin substrate 1, but when the inorganic film 2 is a glass film and the laser light LB is a UV laser, the laser is used. The light LB substantially transmits the inorganic film 2.

以上のような条件のもとで無機膜2の上方から照射されたレーザ光LBは、図3に示すように、無機膜2を透過し、その直下の、樹脂基板1のうち無機膜2との界面近傍の領域(以下、吸収領域RE1)において吸収される。すると、当該吸収領域RE1が高エネルギー状態となり、当該吸収領域RE1においては、樹脂基板1を構成する炭素原子がプラズマ化される。このプラズマ化された炭素原子は、矢印AR2にて示すように吸収領域RE1から急速に脱離しようとする。 As shown in FIG. 3, the laser beam LB irradiated from above the inorganic film 2 under the above conditions passes through the inorganic film 2 and is directly below the inorganic film 2 in the resin substrate 1. It is absorbed in the region near the interface (hereinafter referred to as the absorption region RE1). Then, the absorption region RE1 becomes a high energy state, and in the absorption region RE1, the carbon atoms constituting the resin substrate 1 are turned into plasma. This plasmatized carbon atom tends to rapidly desorb from the absorption region RE1 as shown by the arrow AR2.

しかしながら、吸収領域RE1の上方の、レーザ光LBが透過した領域(以下、透過領域RE2)には無機膜2が存在する。そのため、炭素原子の脱離は、矢印AR3にて示すような当該透過領域RE2に存在する無機膜2の剥離(飛散)を引き起こすことになる。レーザ光LBはストリートSTに沿って走査されるので、このような剥離が、ストリートSTに沿って生じることになる。 However, the inorganic film 2 is present in the region above the absorption region RE1 through which the laser beam LB is transmitted (hereinafter referred to as the transmission region RE2). Therefore, the desorption of carbon atoms causes peeling (scattering) of the inorganic film 2 existing in the transmission region RE2 as shown by the arrow AR3. Since the laser beam LB is scanned along the street ST, such delamination will occur along the street ST.

図4は、レーザ光LBによる走査後の無機膜積層樹脂基板Wの様子を示す図である。ストリートSTに沿った無機膜2の剥離の結果として、ストリートSTにおいては、樹脂基板1の露出面1aが形成されてなる。なお、係る剥離を引き起こすような炭素の脱離が生じることから、露出面1aは、図4に示すように凹面となり得るが、平坦面として形成される態様であってもよい。 FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the state of the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W after scanning with the laser beam LB. As a result of the peeling of the inorganic film 2 along the street ST, the exposed surface 1a of the resin substrate 1 is formed in the street ST. The exposed surface 1a may be a concave surface as shown in FIG. 4, but may be formed as a flat surface because carbon desorption that causes such peeling occurs.

また、図4に示すように、ストリートSTに沿って無機膜2が剥離されることに伴い、金属配線3のうち当該ストリートSTと直交していた部分についても、併せて剥離されることになる。 Further, as shown in FIG. 4, as the inorganic film 2 is peeled off along the street ST, the portion of the metal wiring 3 that is orthogonal to the street ST is also peeled off. ..

なお、樹脂基板1の厚み方向における吸収領域RE1の形成範囲はせいぜい、樹脂基板1と無機膜2との界面から1μm~5μm程度までであり、樹脂基板1の厚みに比して十分に小さいことから、炭素原子のプラズマ化に起因した黒鉛の飛散や付着は、生じたとしても樹脂基板1の全体をレーザ光LBの照射にて分断しようとする場合に比して極め限定的である。それゆえ、上述した態様にて無機膜2を剥離するに際して、黒鉛の付着に起因した金属配線3の短絡という不具合の発生は、好適に抑制されてなる。 The formation range of the absorption region RE1 in the thickness direction of the resin substrate 1 is at most about 1 μm to 5 μm from the interface between the resin substrate 1 and the inorganic film 2, which is sufficiently smaller than the thickness of the resin substrate 1. Therefore, even if graphite is scattered or adhered due to the plasma formation of carbon atoms, the entire resin substrate 1 is extremely limited as compared with the case where the entire resin substrate 1 is to be divided by irradiation with laser light LB. Therefore, when the inorganic film 2 is peeled off in the above-described manner, the occurrence of a short circuit of the metal wiring 3 due to the adhesion of graphite is suitably suppressed.

レーザ光LBを用いたストリートSTでの無機膜2の剥離が完了すると、続いて、スクライビングホイールの圧接転動により、ストリートSTにおいて樹脂基板1のスクライブを行う。図5は、スクライビングホイールSHによる樹脂基板1のスクライブを行う前の様子を示す図である。また、図6は、スクライビングホイールSHによる樹脂基板1のスクライブを行った後の様子を示す図である。 After the peeling of the inorganic film 2 in the street ST using the laser beam LB is completed, the resin substrate 1 is scribed in the street ST by the pressure contact rolling of the scribing wheel. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a state before scribe the resin substrate 1 by the scribing wheel SH. Further, FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a state after scribe the resin substrate 1 by the scribing wheel SH.

スクライビングホイールSHは、外周部分が刃先Eとなった円板状の部材であり、図5においては図示を省略する支持手段にて鉛直面内において回転自在に支持されてなるとともに、図示を省略する昇降機構にて鉛直面内において昇降可能とされてなる。 The scribing wheel SH is a disk-shaped member having an outer peripheral portion having a cutting edge E, and is rotatably supported in a vertical plane by a support means (not shown) in FIG. 5, and is not shown. The elevating mechanism makes it possible to elevate within the vertical plane.

スクライブに際してはまず、スクライビングホイールSHをスクライブ開始位置に配置しつつ、スクライビングホイールSHの回転面とストリート中心Cの延在方向とが同一平面内に位置するように、スクライビングホイールSHと無機膜積層樹脂基板Wとを位置決めする。 At the time of scribing, first, while arranging the scribing wheel SH at the scribing start position, the scribing wheel SH and the inorganic film laminated resin are positioned so that the rotating surface of the scribing wheel SH and the extending direction of the street center C are located in the same plane. Position the board W.

係る位置決めがなされると、スクライビングホイールSHをストリート中心Cに対して所定の荷重にて押し込むことにより、図5に示すように刃先Eを樹脂基板1の露出面1aに対し圧接させる。そして、係る圧接状態を保ちながら、矢印AR4にて示すように、スクライビングホイールSHを、ストリート中心Cに沿って無機膜積層樹脂基板Wに対し相対移動させ、これによって、矢印AR5にて示すように、スクライビングホイールSHを転動させる。すると、係るスクライビングホイールSHの圧接転動に伴い、樹脂基板1は、矢印AR6a、AR6bにて示す、ストリート中心Cに対して対称かつ相反する2つの向きに、切り裂かれていくことになる。最終的には、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wは、図6に示すような個片Wa、Wbに分断されることになる。 When such positioning is performed, the scribing wheel SH is pushed against the street center C with a predetermined load so that the cutting edge E is pressed against the exposed surface 1a of the resin substrate 1 as shown in FIG. Then, while maintaining the pressure contact state, the scribing wheel SH is moved relative to the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W along the street center C as shown by the arrow AR4, thereby, as shown by the arrow AR5. , Roll the scribing wheel SH. Then, with the pressure contact rolling of the scribing wheel SH, the resin substrate 1 is torn in two directions symmetrical and contradictory to the street center C as indicated by the arrows AR6a and AR6b. Finally, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is divided into individual pieces Wa and Wb as shown in FIG.

係る場合、スクライビングホイールSHが分断するのは樹脂基板1のみであり、スクライビングホイールSHは無機膜2や金属配線3とは接触しないので、分断に際して無機膜2や金属配線3にクラックが生じることはない。 In such a case, the scribing wheel SH divides only the resin substrate 1, and the scribing wheel SH does not come into contact with the inorganic film 2 or the metal wiring 3, so that cracks may occur in the inorganic film 2 or the metal wiring 3 at the time of division. do not have.

スクライビングホイールSHとしては、超硬製で、厚みが0.4mm~1.2mmであり、直径が4mm~10mmであり、刃先Eの角度(刃先角)が15°~90°(例えば15°~60°、特には15°~45°)の鋭角であるものを用いるのが好適である。また、スクライビングホイールSHを樹脂基板1の露出面1aに対し圧接させる際の荷重(圧接荷重)は、0.05MPa~1MPa(特には0.1MPa~0.5MPa)が好ましい。 The scribing wheel SH is made of cemented carbide, has a thickness of 0.4 mm to 1.2 mm, a diameter of 4 mm to 10 mm, and an acute angle of the cutting edge E (cutting edge angle) of 15 ° to 90 ° (for example, 15 ° to). It is preferable to use one having an acute angle of 60 °, particularly 15 ° to 45 °). The load (pressure contact load) when the scribing wheel SH is pressed against the exposed surface 1a of the resin substrate 1 is preferably 0.05 MPa to 1 MPa (particularly 0.1 MPa to 0.5 MPa).

以上、説明したように、本実施の形態においては、無機膜積層樹脂基板のストリートにおける分断を、レーザ光の照射による無機膜の剥離と、スクライビングホイールの圧接転動による樹脂基板のスクライブとの二段階で行う。これにより、樹脂基板をレーザ光にて分断する場合に生じる、炭素原子のプラズマ化に起因した黒鉛の飛散さらには金属配線への付着や、無機膜を機械的に分断する場合に生じる、当該無機膜でのクラックの伸展や金属配線の断線などの不具合を生じさせることなく、無機膜積層樹脂基板をストリートにおいて分断することができる。 As described above, in the present embodiment, the division of the inorganic film laminated resin substrate in the street is divided into the peeling of the inorganic film by irradiation with laser light and the scribing of the resin substrate by the pressure contact rolling of the scribing wheel. Do it in stages. As a result, the inorganic matter that occurs when the resin substrate is divided by laser light, the scattering of graphite due to the plasma formation of carbon atoms, the adhesion to metal wiring, and the mechanical division of the inorganic film. The inorganic film laminated resin substrate can be divided on the street without causing problems such as expansion of cracks in the film and disconnection of metal wiring.

<分断装置>
次に、上述した二段階分断を一連のプロセスとして実行可能な分断装置の一例について説明する。図7は、このような分断装置100構成を模式的に示す図である。
<Dividing device>
Next, an example of a dividing device capable of executing the above-mentioned two-step dividing as a series of processes will be described. FIG. 7 is a diagram schematically showing such a configuration of the dividing device 100.

分断装置100においては、水平な架台101上に、スライドテーブル102が設けられている。スライドテーブル102は、水平面内において平行に配置された一対のガイドレール103、104に沿って設けられてなる。また、両ガイドレール103、104の間にはスクリューネジ105が両ガイドレール103、104と平行に配置されており、係るスクリューネジ105は、スライドテーブル102に固定されたステー106と螺合している。 In the dividing device 100, the slide table 102 is provided on the horizontal pedestal 101. The slide table 102 is provided along a pair of guide rails 103 and 104 arranged in parallel in a horizontal plane. Further, a screw screw 105 is arranged between the guide rails 103 and 104 in parallel with the guide rails 103 and 104, and the screw screw 105 is screwed with a stay 106 fixed to the slide table 102. There is.

スクリューネジ105を図示しないモーターによって正転および逆転させることにより、スライドテーブル102がガイドレール103、104に沿って往復移動するようになっている。図7においては、スライドテーブル102の移動方向(図面視前後方向)をY軸方向とし、水平面内において当該移動方向に直交する方向(図面視左右方向)をX軸方向とし、鉛直方向(図面視上下方向)をZ軸方向とする右手系のXYZ座標を付している。 By rotating the screw screw 105 in the forward and reverse directions by a motor (not shown), the slide table 102 reciprocates along the guide rails 103 and 104. In FIG. 7, the moving direction of the slide table 102 (front-back direction in the drawing) is the Y-axis direction, the direction orthogonal to the moving direction in the horizontal plane (left-right direction in the drawing) is the X-axis direction, and the vertical direction (viewing in the drawing). The XYZ coordinates of the right-handed system with the Z-axis direction as the vertical direction) are attached.

スライドテーブル102上には、水平な台座107がガイドレール108に沿って、X軸方向に往復自在に配置されている。具体的には、モーター109によって回転するスクリューネジ110が、台座107に固定されたステー110aに螺合されており、モーター109によってスクリューネジ110を正転および逆転させることにより、台座107がガイドレール108に沿ってX軸方向に往復移動するようになっている。 On the slide table 102, a horizontal pedestal 107 is reciprocated along the guide rail 108 in the X-axis direction. Specifically, the screw screw 110 rotated by the motor 109 is screwed into the stay 110a fixed to the pedestal 107, and the pedestal 107 is guided by the motor 109 by rotating the screw screw 110 in the forward and reverse directions. It reciprocates in the X-axis direction along 108.

台座107上には、回転機構111によってZ軸周りで回転自在とされてなる回転テーブル112が備わる。この回転テーブル112の水平な上面に、分断装置100における分断対象たる無機膜積層樹脂基板Wが載置固定される。より詳細には、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wは、無機膜2が上部となる姿勢にて、図示しない吸引チャックによって、回転テーブル112に固定される。 On the pedestal 107, a rotary table 112 which is made rotatable around the Z axis by the rotation mechanism 111 is provided. The inorganic film laminated resin substrate W to be divided in the dividing device 100 is placed and fixed on the horizontal upper surface of the rotary table 112. More specifically, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is fixed to the rotary table 112 by a suction chuck (not shown) in a posture in which the inorganic film 2 is on the upper side.

回転テーブル112の上方には、レーザ光LBを発生させるレーザ光源113と、内部に備わる種々のレンズ群にてレーザ光LBのビーム形状を調整する光学ホルダ114とを備える、レーザ照射部115が設けられてなる。レーザ光LBは、光学ホルダ114の最下端部に備わる出射源114aから、回転テーブル112に載置固定された無機膜積層樹脂基板Wに対し出射される。 Above the rotary table 112, a laser irradiation unit 115 is provided, which includes a laser light source 113 for generating a laser beam LB and an optical holder 114 for adjusting the beam shape of the laser beam LB with various lens groups provided inside. Being done. The laser beam LB is emitted from the emission source 114a provided at the lowermost end of the optical holder 114 to the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W placed and fixed on the rotary table 112.

レーザ光源113としては、上述したように、UVレーザ、COレーザ、グリーンレーザ、IRレーザなどの光源が例示される。 As the laser light source 113, as described above, a light source such as a UV laser, a CO 2 laser, a green laser, or an IR laser is exemplified.

また、分断装置100においては、レーザ照射部115の光学ホルダ114とX軸方向において所定距離離隔した位置に、スクライビングホイール116とその昇降機構117とを備えるスクライブ処理部118が設けられてなる。 Further, in the dividing device 100, a scribing processing unit 118 including a scribing wheel 116 and an elevating mechanism 117 thereof is provided at a position separated from the optical holder 114 of the laser irradiation unit 115 by a predetermined distance in the X-axis direction.

より詳細には、レーザ照射部115とスクライブ処理部118とは、少なくとも二段階分断時において、出射源114aから出射されるレーザ光LBのビーム中心とスクライビングホイール116の刃先EとがY軸方向に垂直な一のZX平面上に位置するように、設けられてなる。係る平面を、基準平面と称する。 More specifically, in the laser irradiation unit 115 and the scribe processing unit 118, the beam center of the laser beam LB emitted from the emission source 114a and the cutting edge E of the scribing wheel 116 are in the Y-axis direction at least at the time of two-step division. It is provided so as to be located on one vertical ZX plane. Such a plane is referred to as a reference plane.

スクライビングホイール116は、図5のスクライビングホイールSHに相当する。スクライブ処理部118においては、スクライビングホイール116の下方に無機膜積層樹脂基板Wが位置する状況において、昇降機構117によってスクライビングホイール116を下降させることで、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wにスクライビングホイールを圧接させることができるようになっている。 The scribing wheel 116 corresponds to the scribing wheel SH in FIG. In the scribe processing unit 118, when the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is located below the scribing wheel 116, the scribing wheel 116 is lowered by the elevating mechanism 117 to press the scribing wheel against the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W. You can do it.

図8は、以上のような構成を有する分断装置100において二段階分断により無機膜積層樹脂基板Wを分断するプロセスを説明するための図である。 FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining a process of dividing the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W by two-step division in the dividing device 100 having the above configuration.

分断装置100において二段階分断を行うにあたっては、まず、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wが図8においては図示を省略する回転テーブル112に載置固定され、さらには、そのストリート中心Cが基準平面と一致するように、かつ、図8(a)に示すように、レーザ照射部115を挟んでスクライブ処理部118と反対側に位置するように、位置決めがなされる。 In performing the two-step division in the dividing device 100, first, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is placed and fixed on the rotary table 112 (not shown in FIG. 8), and the street center C coincides with the reference plane. As shown in FIG. 8A, the positioning is performed so as to be located on the opposite side of the scribing processing unit 118 with the laser irradiation unit 115 interposed therebetween.

係る位置決めがなされると、矢印AR7にて示すように、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wがレーザ照射部115さらにはスクライブ処理部118の下方へと移動させられる。係る移動は、上方に回転テーブル112が備わる台座107をガイドレール108に沿って移動させることによりなされる。 When such positioning is performed, as shown by the arrow AR7, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is moved to the lower side of the laser irradiation unit 115 and further to the scribe processing unit 118. Such movement is performed by moving the pedestal 107 having the rotary table 112 upward along the guide rail 108.

そして、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wがレーザ照射部115の出射源114aの下方に到達するタイミングで、上述した、樹脂基板1のうち無機膜2との界面近傍部分においてのみ、吸収が生じる程度の照射条件にて、出射源114aからレーザ光LBを出射させる。これにより、図8(b)に示すように、吸収領域RE1においてレーザ光LBが吸収されて当該吸収領域RE1の炭素原子がプラズマ化され、その樹脂基板1からの脱離に伴い、無機膜2のうち当該レーザ光LBの透過領域RE2となっている部分が剥離されて、樹脂基板1の露出面1aが形成される。 Then, at the timing when the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W reaches below the emission source 114a of the laser irradiation unit 115, the irradiation to the extent that absorption occurs only in the above-mentioned portion of the resin substrate 1 near the interface with the inorganic film 2. Under the conditions, the laser beam LB is emitted from the emission source 114a. As a result, as shown in FIG. 8B, the laser beam LB is absorbed in the absorption region RE1 and the carbon atom in the absorption region RE1 is turned into plasma, and the inorganic film 2 is separated from the resin substrate 1 as the carbon atom is turned into plasma. Of these, the portion of the laser beam LB that is the transmission region RE2 is peeled off to form the exposed surface 1a of the resin substrate 1.

このような、矢印AR7にて示す無機膜積層樹脂基板Wの移動とレーザ光LBの照射とによる無機膜2の剥離が継続すると、やがては、図8(c)に示すように、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wがスクライブ処理部118に備わるスクライビングホイール116の下方に到達する。係る到達のタイミングで、昇降機構117の作用によりスクライビングホイール116が鉛直下方に下降させられて樹脂基板1の露出面1aにおけるストリート中心Cに圧接させられる。係る圧接の後も、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wが移動させられることで、スクライビングホイール116が転動する。係る圧接転動により、樹脂基板1がスクライブされ、徐々に切り裂かれていく。そして、遅くとも無機膜積層樹脂基板Wの最後尾がスクライブ処理部118を通過までの間に、無機膜積層樹脂基板WはストリートSTにおいて分断されることになる。 When the peeling of the inorganic film 2 due to the movement of the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W indicated by the arrow AR7 and the irradiation of the laser beam LB continues, the inorganic film laminated eventually becomes as shown in FIG. 8 (c). The resin substrate W reaches below the scribing wheel 116 provided in the scribing processing unit 118. At the timing of such arrival, the scribing wheel 116 is lowered vertically downward by the action of the elevating mechanism 117, and is pressed against the street center C on the exposed surface 1a of the resin substrate 1. Even after the pressure welding, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is moved so that the scribing wheel 116 rolls. Due to the pressure contact rolling, the resin substrate 1 is scribed and gradually torn. Then, at the latest, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is divided in the street ST until the tail end of the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W passes through the scribe processing section 118.

このように、分断装置100においては、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wの一度の移動動作において、レーザ光LBの照射による無機膜2の剥離と、スクライビングホイール116による樹脂基板1のスクライブとを連続的に行うことができるので、効率的かつ高精度に無機膜積層樹脂基板Wを分断することができる。 As described above, in the dividing device 100, in the one-time movement operation of the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W, the peeling of the inorganic film 2 by the irradiation of the laser beam LB and the scribing of the resin substrate 1 by the scribing wheel 116 are continuously performed. Since this can be done, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W can be divided efficiently and with high accuracy.

<変形例>
上述の実施の形態においては、分断装置100が一のレーザ照射部115を有しているが、レーザ照射部115は、Y軸方向において所定間隔にて複数設けられていてもよい。係る構成の分断装置においては、複数個所において同時並行的にレーザ光LBの照射を行って無機膜2を剥離した後、それぞれの箇所における樹脂基板1の露出面1aに対して順次に、スクライビングホイール116によるスクライブを行うことで、一の無機膜積層樹脂基板Wを複数個所にて分断することができる。
<Modification example>
In the above-described embodiment, the dividing device 100 has one laser irradiation unit 115, but a plurality of laser irradiation units 115 may be provided at predetermined intervals in the Y-axis direction. In the dividing device having such a configuration, after the inorganic film 2 is peeled off by simultaneously irradiating the laser beam LB at a plurality of locations, the scribing wheel is sequentially applied to the exposed surface 1a of the resin substrate 1 at each location. By scribe with 116, one inorganic film laminated resin substrate W can be divided at a plurality of places.

あるいは、レーザ照射部115とスクライブ処理部118の組が、Y軸方向において所定間隔にて複数設けられていてもよい。係る構成の分断装置においては、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wの一度の移動動作で、図8に示したようなレーザ光LBによる無機膜2の剥離とこれに連続する樹脂基板1の露出面1aでのスクライブとを、複数の箇所で同時並行的に行うことができる。すなわち、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wの一度の移動動作で、当該無機膜積層樹脂基板Wを複数個所にて分断することができる。 Alternatively, a plurality of pairs of the laser irradiation unit 115 and the scribe processing unit 118 may be provided at predetermined intervals in the Y-axis direction. In the dividing device having such a configuration, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is moved once, and the inorganic film 2 is peeled off by the laser beam LB as shown in FIG. 8 and the exposed surface 1a of the resin substrate 1 is continuous therewith. Scribe can be performed at multiple locations in parallel. That is, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W can be divided at a plurality of places by one movement operation of the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W.

また、上述の実施の形態においては、樹脂基板1のスクライブに、スクライビングホイールSH(116)を用いているが、これは必須の態様ではなく、棒状のスクライブツールによりスクライブを行う態様であってもよい。 Further, in the above-described embodiment, the scribing wheel SH (116) is used for the scribing of the resin substrate 1, but this is not an indispensable mode, and even if the scribing is performed by a rod-shaped scribing tool. good.

また、上述の実施の形態においては、無機膜積層樹脂基板Wは樹脂基板1と無機膜2との積層体となっていたが、樹脂基板1の下方にPET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)からなる保護フィルムが添付されてなる場合であっても、上述した二段階分断は好適に行うことができる。 Further, in the above-described embodiment, the inorganic film laminated resin substrate W is a laminate of the resin substrate 1 and the inorganic film 2, but a protective film made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is formed below the resin substrate 1. Even if it is attached, the above-mentioned two-step division can be preferably performed.

なお、無機膜2の上面にPETからなる保護フィルムが添付されてなる場合もあるが、このような場合は、COレーザを照射するなどしてあらかじめストリートSTの位置において無機膜2を露出させたうえで、上述した二段階分断を行うようにすればよい。 A protective film made of PET may be attached to the upper surface of the inorganic film 2, but in such a case, the inorganic film 2 is exposed in advance at the position of the street ST by irradiating a CO 2 laser or the like. After that, the above-mentioned two-step division may be performed.
