    Abstract: A stand-alone processing station of a semiconductor manufacturing system may be configured to fabricate interconnects on a semiconductor wafer. The stand-alone processing station may include a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) module and an electro-chemical deposition (ECD) module. The CMP module may be configured to receive a semiconductor wafer from another processing station and selectively remove a first top layer from the received semiconductor wafer. The ECD module may be configured to receive a semiconductor wafer from the CMP module and fill interconnect features with metal. The CMP module may also be configured to receive a semiconductor wafer from the ECD module and selectively remove excess metal and a second top layer from the semiconductor wafer. Methods of forming an interconnect on a semiconductor wafer are also provided, as are other aspects.

    Abstract: Electroplating systems according to the present technology may include a two-bath electroplating chamber including a separator configured to provide fluid separation between a first bath configured to maintain a catholyte during operation and a second bath configured to maintain an anolyte during operation. The electroplating systems may include a catholyte tank and an anolyte tank fluidly coupled with the two baths of the two-bath electroplating chamber. The electroplating systems may include a first pump configured to provide catholyte from the catholyte tank to the first bath. The electroplating systems may include a second pump configured to provide anolyte from the anolyte tank to the second bath. The electroplating systems may also include an oxygen-delivery apparatus configured to provide an oxygen-containing fluid within the electroplating system.

    Abstract: In one aspect, a substrate chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) method for copper-layered substrates is disclosed. The CMP method includes providing a substrate having a surface of copper, and pre-treating the surface containing copper with a first composition containing a carrier liquid, a corrosion inhibitor, and an oxidizer in a pre-treatment phase, and thereafter, polishing the surface with a slurry composition in a main polishing phase. CMP systems and compositions for CMP are provided, as are numerous other aspects.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein generally relate to polishing pads and methods of forming polishing pads. A polishing pad includes a plurality of polishing elements. Each polishing element comprises an individual surface that forms a portion of a polishing surface of the polishing pad and one or more sidewalls extending downwardly from the individual surface to define a plurality of channels disposed between the polishing elements. Each of the polishing elements has a plurality of pore-features formed therein. Each of the polishing elements is formed of a pre-polymer composition and a sacrificial material composition. In some cases, a sample of the cured pre-polymer composition has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of about 80° C. or greater. A storage modulus (E′) of the cured pre-polymer composition at a temperature of 80° C. (E′80) can be about 200 MPa or greater.
