    摘要: A system method and apparatus to monitor a frictional coefficient of a substrate undergoing polishing is described. A polishing pad assembly includes a polishing layer including a polishing surface, and a substrate contacting member flexibly coupled to the polishing layer having a top surface to contact an exposed surface of a substrate. At least a portion of the top surface is substantially coplanar with the polishing surface. A sensor is provided to measure a lateral displacement of the substrate contacting member. Some embodiments may provide accurate endpoint detection during chemical mechanical polishing to indicate the exposure of an underlying layer.

    摘要: A polishing system can have a rotatable platen, a polishing pad secured to the platen, a carrier head to hold a substrate against the polishing pad, and an eddy current monitoring system including a coil or ferromagnetic body that extends at least partially through the polishing pad. A polishing pad can have a polishing layer and a coil or ferromagnetic body secured to the polishing layer. Recesses can be formed in a transparent window in the polishing pad.
