Adhesive sheet and method for manufacturing the same, semiconductor device manufacturing method and semiconductor device

A method for producing a semiconductor wafer having a laminate, comprising:

• peeling off the laminate including an adhesive layer, a tacky layer and a substrate film, in an adhesive sheet comprising a release substrate, the adhesive layer, the tacky layer, and the substrate film, which are laminated in order, from the release substrate, and sticking the laminate through the adhesive layer to a semiconductor wafer to give a semiconductor wafer having the laminate,
• wherein:
• the adhesive layer has a pre-determined plane shape and is partly formed on the release substrate,
• an incision has been formed in the release substrate from a side bringing contact with the adhesive layer along the periphery of the plane shape of the adhesive layer;
• the release substrate has a thickness of 30-50 μm,
• the incision has a depth of more than zero, and less than 25 μm;
• and
• a lamination of the laminate to the semiconductor wafer is continuously performed in an automatic step.

A method for sticking a laminate, comprising:

• peeling off a release substrate from an adhesive sheet comprising the release substrate, a substrate film, and a tacky-adhesive layer placed between the release substrate and the substrate film, to give the laminate including the substrate film and the tacky-adhesive layer;
• and
• sticking the tacky-adhesive layer of the laminate to an adherend,
• wherein:
• an annular incision has been formed in the release substrate from the tacky-adhesive layer side of the release substrate,
• the release substrate has a thickness of 30-50 μm,
• the tacky-adhesive layer covers a whole inner surface of the incision in the release substrate,
• the incision has a depth of more than zero, and less than 25 μm, and
• a lamination of the laminate to the adherend is continuously performed in an automatic step.
