    摘要: A method of determining a physical property of a substrate includes recording a first spectrum obtained from a substrate, the first spectrum being obtained during a polishing process that alters a physical property of the substrate. The method includes identifying, in a database, at least one of several previously recorded spectra that is similar to the recorded first spectrum. Each of the spectra in the database has a physical property value associated therewith. The method includes generating a signal indicating that a first value of the physical property is associated with the first spectrum, the first value being determined using the physical property value associated with the identified previously recorded spectrum in the database. A system for determining a physical property of a substrate includes a polishing machine, an endpoint determining module, and a database.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to an apparatus for processing a substrate and more specifically to a device that will transfer electrical power and/or control signals between a stationary base and a rotating platen without involving mechanical contact. The device does not suffer the drawbacks of conventional slip rings burdened with moving surfaces. In one embodiment, an apparatus for processing a substrate is provided. The apparatus includes a platen assembly having a surface for supporting a planarizing material and disposed on a stationary base so that the platen assembly may rotate relative to the base. The apparatus further includes a coupling assembly for transferring electrical energy from a primary coil to a secondary coil. The coupling assembly includes the primary coil of wire wrapped around a first core; the first core coupled to the base; the secondary coil of wire wrapped around a second core; and the second core coupled to the platen assembly.
