How To Dice With A Wafer Cleaving Tool

Dicing with a cleaving tool involves two steps;

First, you make a weak point on the edge of the sample. Without the weak point, it’s difficult to split the sample in two. The accuracy and quality of the cleave depend on the weak point creation.
Next is the actual cleaving. You do this by creating stress on the weak point. The cleaving then begins and goes all the way across the sample.
