Abstract

A method includes producing a semiconductor wafer. The semiconductor wafer includes a plurality of microelectromechanical system (MEMS) semiconductor chips, wherein the MEMS semiconductor chips have MEMS structures arranged at a first main surface of the semiconductor wafer, a first semiconductor material layer arranged at the first main surface, and a second semiconductor material layer arranged under the first semiconductor material layer, wherein a doping of the first semiconductor material layer is greater than a doping of the second semiconductor material layer. The method further includes removing the first semiconductor material layer in a region between adjacent MEMS semiconductor chips. The method further includes applying a stealth dicing process from the first main surface of the semiconductor wafer and between the adjacent MEMS semiconductor chips.
