Abstract

A method of making a substrate involves patterning the substrate into active areas and dicing lanes. After the substrate is patterned one or more stress layers are formed the substrate. A change in stress along a thickness of the substrate in the active areas is larger than a change in stress along the thickness of the substrate in the dicing lanes. The substrate is subsequently diced along the dicing lanes.
