摘要:
A semiconductor manufacturing apparatus includes at least one inner retaining ring, and an outer retaining ring. The at least one inner retaining ring applies a first pressure to the polishing pad, and retains a substrate on the polishing pad. The outer retaining ring applies a second pressure to the polishing pad, and retains the at least one inner retaining ring on the polishing pad. Control of the first pressure is independent with respect to control of the second pressure.

A method of testing a test wafer includes shielding test centers on a test wafer using shielding tabs during the deposition of a layer. The test wafer has the same size and shape of product wafers. The shielding tabs are then removed from the test wafer. A plurality of predetermined points which are separated from each test center by a critical interval are checked, and whether each point is covered by the layer is determined through an interferometer or a microprobe. The test wafer is processed after adjustments to or maintenance on equipment, or after a fixed number of product wafers have been processed.

A capacitor having an electrically/conductive plate, an electrically conductive segmented plate defining a first plurality of electrically conductive plate segments and a second plurality of electrically conductive plate segments, a first capacitor dielectric disposed between the plate and the segmented plate, at least one electrically conductive interconnect coupling each of the plate segments of one of the first and second plurality of plate segments to the plate, and a second capacitor dielectric disposed between the plate segments.

摘要:
A method for making a conditioner disk used in a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process comprises applying a first layer of at least one binder over a substrate; disposing a plurality of diamond particles on the first layer of the at least one first binder at the plurality of locations; and fixing the plurality of diamond particles to the substrate by heating the substrate to a raised temperature and then cooling the substrate. The plurality of diamond particles disposed over the substrate are configured to provide a working diamond ratio higher than 50% when the conditioner disk is used in a CMP process.
