    摘要: A carrier head for a chemical mechanical polishing system includes a substrate sensing mechanism. The carrier head includes a base and a flexible member connected to the base to define a chamber. A lower surface of the flexible member provides a substrate receiving surface. The substrate sensing mechanism includes a sensor to measure a pressure in the chamber and generate an output signal representative thereof, and a processor configured to indicate whether the substrate is attached to the substrate receiving surface in response to the output signal.

    摘要: A carrier head for a chemical mechanical polishing apparatus. The carrier head includes a housing, a base, a loading mechanism, a gimbal mechanism, and a substrate backing assembly. The substrate backing assembly includes a support structure positioned below the base, a substantially horizontal, annular flexure connecting the support structure to the base, and a flexible membrane connected to the support structure. The flexible membrane has a mounting surface for a substrate, and extends beneath the base to define a chamber.

    摘要: A carrier head for a chemical mechanical polishing apparatus is described. The carrier head has a base, a rigid body, a membrane and a pressurizing structure. The rigid body is movable relative to the base and includes a downwardly-extending projection. The membrane has a mounting surface for a substrate. The membrane extends below the base to provide a chamber between the base and the membrane. The pressurizing structure applies a downward pressure on the rigid body to cause a lower surface of the rigid body to press on an inner surface of the membrane.
