    摘要: Methods, apparatus, and systems are provided for retaining a substrate in a polishing head of a CMP system. The invention includes a flexible inner retaining ring adapted to contour to an edge of a substrate and an inner ring support coupled to the polishing head. The inner support ring is adapted to contact the flexible inner retaining ring in response to a side force load applied to the flexible inner retaining ring by a substrate being polished. Numerous additional aspects are disclosed.

    摘要: One embodiment provides a retaining ring assembly. The retaining ring assembly comprises a retaining ring configured to circumferentially surround and retain the substrate within an inner surface of the retaining ring, and a flexure coupled to the retaining ring. The flexure is configured to maintain a gap between an inner surface of a carrier ring and an outer surface of the retaining ring, and the carrier ring is circumferentially surrounding the retaining ring.
