Method For Fabricating Probe Tip

Abstract

Disclosed is a method for fabricating a probe tip, capable of preventing a rapid increase of a surface size of a front end of the probe tip as the probe tip is worn out by a frequent contact with a wafer chip and, also, capable of improving the precision of the front end of the probe tip. The method for fabricating a probe tip includes forming a front end of the probe tip on a silicon wafer; forming a first protective layer which is patterned to expose a part of the front end of the probe tip; and forming a body of the probe tip in a portion opened by the pattern of the first protective layer.
