Glass and Ceramics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

The results of diamond-abrasive processing of the backside of 4H- and 6H-polytype silicon-carbide semiconductor wafers are presented. The sizes of surface microcracks in ceramic plates after abrasive treatment by means of pastes with diamond micro-powder of various grain sizes were investigated, and the relationship between the length of a surface micro-crack and the material removal rate, depending on the technological regimes of diamond-abrasive processing, was determined. As a result, a new method of one-sided abrasive treatment of thin ceramic plates, which reduces cracking, is proposed.
