摘要:
The embodiments of the invention generally relate to a method and apparatus for processing a substrate where reduced defect formation is desired. Embodiments of the invention may be beneficially practiced in chemical mechanical polishing and electrochemical mechanical polishing processes, among other processes where reduction in defect formation due to foam formation is desired. In one embodiment, a processing system for planarizing a substrate is provided that includes a platen, a pad disposed on the platen, a carrier head configured to retain the substrate against the pad while contacting an electronically conductive processing solution; and a foam removal assembly. The foam removal assembly is configured to remove foam from the electrically conductive processing solution, wherein a gap exists between a surface of the electrically conductive processing solution and a bottom edge of the foam removal assembly.

An electropolishing device for polishing a cylindrical medical device such as a stent includes anodes in the form of rollers arranged to contact an exterior surface of the device. A drive mechanism rotates the anodes periodically during the electropolishing process to change a contact point between the anodes and the medical device. A tilting mechanism can also be used for periodically tilting the anodes during the electropolishing process to allow bubbles to escape from one end of the stent.

Method and apparatus for process control of electro-processes. The method includes electro-processing a wafer by the application of two or more biases and determining an amount of charge removed as a result of each bias, separately. In one embodiment, an endpoint is determined for each bias when the amount of charge removed for a bias substantially equals a respective target charge calculated for the bias.

A frame member, comprising a pair substantially parallel base members connected by a pair substantially parallel intermediate members extending therebetween, has its base members formed of the same material as the machine bed wherein the material is a cast mineral material comprising a synthetic binder and mineral fillers. It is a particular feature that the base members of the frame member be cast with the machine bed as a unitary structure out of the cast mineral material.

A method for forming a master die from a conductive material using electrical discharge machining. The conductive material is created to have a plurality of dimples that are non-circular in a direction perpendicular to the spherical surface of a conductive material and/or in a vertical cross section. The plurality of dimples being formed by electric discharge machining using an electrode that is moved in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the material.

A wire-cut electroerosion apparatus comprising a work tank (6) for containing a dielectric fluid, the tank having at least one wall with an opening (36) therein, and a lower arm (15) which is supported at one end on the outside of the work tank and extending through the opening into the tank, the tank being movable relative to the lower arm. The work tank includes a base container member (12) and at least one movable frame member (13,14). The base container member includes a rear wall with the above-noted opening therein and a low wall formed along the other three sides, the low wall being lower than the bottom of the workpiece. The movable frame member(s) can be raised and lowered using a pantograph (20) to thereby easily access the workpiece and electrode wire.
