    摘要: CMP pad dressers having leveled tips and associated methods are provided. In one aspect, for example, a method can include pressing a CMP pad dresser against a CMP pad, where the dresser includes a monolayer of a plurality of superabrasive particles protruding from a matrix layer. The difference in protrusion distance between the highest protruding tip and the second highest protruding tip of the monolayer of superabrasive particles is less than or equal to about 10 microns and the difference in protrusion distance between the highest 10 protruding tips of the monolayer of superabrasive particles are within about 20 microns or less. The method can further include rotating the dresser against the CMP pad such that asperities are cut into the CMP pad having a maximum cutting depth of about 60 microns.
