Methods and apparatus for detecting errors in real time in CMP processing. A method includes disposing a semiconductor wafer onto a wafer carrier in a tool for chemical mechanical polishing (“CMP”); positioning the wafer carrier so that a surface of the semiconductor wafer contacts a polishing pad mounted on a rotating platen; dispensing an abrasive slurry onto the rotating polishing pad while maintaining the surface of the semiconductor wafer in contact with the polishing pad to perform a CMP process on the semiconductor wafer; in real time, receiving signals from the CMP tool into a signal analyzer, the signals corresponding to vibration, acoustics, temperature, or pressure; and comparing the received signals from the CMP tool to expected received signals for normal processing by the CMP tool; outputting a result of the comparing. A CMP tool apparatus is disclosed.

摘要:
System and method for bonding semiconductor substrates is presented. A preferred embodiment comprises forming a buffer layer over a surface of a semiconductor substrate while retaining TSVs that protrude from the buffer layer in order to prevent potential voids that might form. A protective layer is formed on another semiconductor substrate that will be bonded to the first semiconductor substrate. The two substrates are aligned and bonded together, with the buffer layer preventing any short circuit contacts to the surface of the original semiconductor substrate.
