The present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for
processing a semiconductor wafer or semiconductor substrate, which
includes a base material and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer which is
polymerizable and curable by an energy ray, the pressure-sensitive
adhesive layer being disposed on a surface of the base material, in which
the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer includes a base polymer, a
multifunctional acrylate-based oligomer which has an energy-ray
polymerizable carbon-carbon double bond and has a molecular weight of
1000 to 2500, and a multifunctional acrylate-based compound which has an
energy-ray polymerizable carbon-carbon double bond and has a molecular
weight of 200 to 700. The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet of the
invention is excellent in follow-up properties to a minute unevenness
with a depth of about 0.4 to 40 .mu.m such as a mark printed by laser
irradiation, exhibits sufficient adhesive force, and can be released
without the generation of adhesive residue after the purpose of adhesion
has been achieved.
