I would suggest dicing prior to releasing the membrane or separate the
dice by etching, rather than with a saw.

Subject: [mems-talk] Silicon nitride membrane : wafer dicing problem
Hi all,
I am looking for a way to dice my silicon wafer with deep etched pockets
with a micron thick 8 mm by 8 mm silicon nitride membrane on one side. I
tried to use the wax to fill in the cavities and dice. But, I observed
the membranes break. Our dicing saw uses a high pressure water stream to
cool the diamond blade. I would appreciate if anyone has any
suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
-Mahavir Sanghavi
