    摘要: A polishing apparatus comprises a polishing table having a polishing surface, a top ring for holding a substrate and pressing a surface of the substrate against the polishing surface to polish the surface of the substrate, and at least one optical measuring device disposed adjacent to the outer peripheral portion of the polishing table and below the polishing surface of the polishing table for measuring the thickness of a layer formed on the surface of the substrate. The polishing apparatus further comprises at least one notch formed in the peripheral portion of the polishing table. The notch allows light emitted from the optical measuring device to pass therethrough and be incident on the surface of the substrate and allows light reflected from the surface of the substrate to pass therethrough and be incident on the optical measuring device.

    摘要: A method of polishing substrates enables the size of a polishing table to be reduced. A surface of a substrate to be polished is brought into contact with a polishing surface of a polishing table in such a manner that a portion of the surface of the substrate extends outwardly from an outer periphery of the polishing surface. The substrate is rotated about its center axis while keeping its surface in contact with the polishing surface of the polishing table. The attitude of the substrate carrier is controlled so that the surface of the substrate is kept parallel with the polishing surface of the polishing table during a polishing operation.

    摘要: A workpiece such as a semiconductor wafer is positioned between a turntable and a top ring and polished by an abrasive cloth on the turntable while the top ring is being pressed against the turntable. The top ring has a retaining ring for preventing the workpiece from deviating from the lower surface of the top ring, and the retaining ring has an inside diameter larger than an outside diameter of the workpiece. The rotation of the turntable imparts a pressing force in a direction parallel to the upper surface of the turntable to the workpiece so that an outer periphery of the workpiece contacts an inner periphery of the retaining ring, and the rotation of the retaining ring imparts a rotational force to the workpiece so that the workpiece performs a planetary motion relative to the top ring in the retaining ring.
