What is claimed is:

1. A manufacturing method of a dicing sheet which supports electronic-component aggregation with adhesive in the case of separating the electronic-component aggregation in which a plurality of electronic components are integrated, the manufacturing method comprising: forming an adhesion layer so as to cover one surface side of a support member, and forming a concave portion in which a convex shape member projected from the electronic-component aggregation is inserted on a surface of the adhesion layer.

2. A manufacturing method of a dicing sheet according to claim 1, wherein the concave portion is formed by pressing a metal mold which is provided with a predetermined roughness shape to the adhesion layer.

3. A manufacturing method of a dicing sheet according to claim 2, wherein, when the concave portion is formed to the adhesion layer, the metal mold which is in the state of being heated up at temperature of less than 100.quadrature. is pressed to the adhesion layer.

4. A manufacturing method of a dicing sheet according to claim 1, wherein, when the concave portion is formed to the adhesion layer, the concave portion is formed by cutting the adhesion layer partially.

5. A manufacturing method of a dicing sheet according to claim 1, wherein, when the concave portion is formed to the adhesion layer, the concave portion is formed by emitting the laser beam to the adhesion layer.

6. A manufacturing method of a dicing sheet according to claim 1, wherein, the process of forming the concave portion comprises performing pattern formation of mask material on the adhesion layer, and forming the concave portion by partially removing the adhesion layer via the mask material.

7. A manufacturing method of a dicing sheet according to claim 1, wherein, when the concave portion is formed to the adhesive layer or the adhesive sheet, the alignment mark for positioning the convex shape member of the electronic-component aggregation to the concave portion is formed on the adhesive layer or the adhesive sheet at the same time as the manufacturing of the concave portion.

8. The manufacturing method of a dicing sheet according to claim 1, the manufacturing method comprising: forming an alignment mark on the support member in advance of forming the adhesive layer on the support member, wherein the concave portion is formed at a predetermined position on the support member with a standard of the alignment mark on the support member.
