Is there a way to align two sides of wafer

Hi Marty,

I have used a Karl S|ss MJB3 single-side mask aligner to process
double-side alignment. The only way to process (I mean the only one I
found) is to etch through holes in the wafer. This causes some problems :
Photoresist coating becomes more difficult to process (you need a special
device such as Karl S|ss gyrset  and a dedicated chuck to prevent your
spincoater from "swallowing" photoresist). But the main problem remains the
time needed by through holes etching. However, on good silicon cuts (I mean
(100) with square holes), you can achieve a +/- 5 5m alignment (it strongly
depends on the alignment pattern you will use).

Hope it will be a helpfull tip.

Stephane.
