Abstract: Method and apparatus are provided for polishing conductive materials with low dishing of features and reduced or minimal remaining residues. In one aspect, a method is provided for processing a substrate by polishing the substrate to remove bulk conductive material and polishing the substrate by a ratio of carrier head rotational speed to platen rotational speed of between about 2:1 and about 3:1 to remove residual conductive material. In another aspect, a method is provided for processing a substrate including polishing the substrate at a first relative linear velocity between about 600 mm/second and about 1900 mm/second at the center of the substrate, and polishing the substrate at a second relative linear velocity between about 100 mm/second and about 550 mm/second at the center of the substrate.

Abstract: Method and apparatus are provided for polishing substrates comprising conductive and low k dielectric materials with reduced or minimum substrate surface damage and delamination. In one aspect, a method is provided for processing a substrate including positioning a substrate having a conductive material formed thereon in a polishing apparatus having one or more rotational carrier heads and one or more rotatable platens, wherein the carrier head comprises a retaining ring and a membrane for securing a substrate and the platen has a polishing article disposed thereon, contacting the substrate surface and the polishing article to each other at a retaining ring contact pressure of about 0.4 psi or greater than a membrane pressure, and polishing the substrate to remove conductive material.
