    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to advanced polishing pads with tunable chemical, material and structural properties, and new methods of manufacturing the same. According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, it has been discovered that a polishing pad with improved properties may be produced by an additive manufacturing process, such as a three-dimensional (3D) printing process. Embodiments of the present disclosure thus may provide an advanced polishing pad that has discrete features and geometries, formed from at least two different materials that include functional polymers, functional oligomers, reactive diluents, and curing agents. For example, the advanced polishing pad may be formed from a plurality of polymeric layers, by the automated sequential deposition of at least one resin precursor composition followed by at least one curing step, wherein each layer may represent at least one polymer composition, and/or regions of different compositions.

    Abstract: A TSV (through silicon via) reveal process using CMP (chemical mechanical polishing) may be acoustically monitored and controlled to detect TSV breakage and automatically respond thereto. Acoustic emissions received by one or more acoustic sensors positioned proximate a substrate holder and/or a polishing pad of a CMP system may be analyzed to detect TSV breakage during a CMP process. In response to detecting TSV breakage, one or more remedial actions may automatically occur. In some embodiments, a polishing pad platen may have one or more acoustic sensors integrated therein that extend into a polishing pad mounted on the polishing pad platen. Methods of monitoring and controlling a TSV reveal process are also provided, as are other aspects.
