    摘要: A system includes a measuring station for positioning an eddy current probe proximate to a substrate in a substrate holder. The probe can produce a time-varying magnetic field, in order to induce eddy currents in one or more conductive regions of a substrate either prior to or subsequent to polishing. The eddy current signals are detected, and may be used to update one or more polishing parameters for a chemical mechanical polishing system. The substrate holder may be located in a number places; for example, in a substrate transfer system, a factory interface module, a cleaner, or in a portion of the chemical mechanical polishing system away from the polishing stations. Additional probes may be used.

    摘要: A polishing solution is dispensed onto a polishing pad that has a polishing surface, a substrate is brought into contact with the polishing surface, relative motion is created between the substrate and the polishing pad, a light beam is directed through a window in the polishing pad to impinge the substrate, and an intensity of a reflected light beam from the substrate is monitored. The polishing solution has a first refractive index, and the window has a second index of refraction that is approximately equal to the first index of refraction.

    摘要: A chemical mechanical polishing apparatus includes a platen to support a polishing pad, and a polishing head to hold a substrate against the polishing pad during processing. The substrate includes a thin film structure disposed on a wafer. A first optical system includes a first light source to generate a first light beam which impinges on a surface of the substrate, and a first sensor to measure light reflected from the surface of the substrate to generate a measured first interference signal. A second optical system includes a second light source to generate a second light beam which impinges on a surface of the substrate and a second sensor to measure light reflected from the surface of the substrate to generate a measured second interference signal. The second light beam has a wavelength different from the first light beam.
