    摘要: A polishing apparatus that can effectively and efficiently remove potassium and other alkaline metals comprises integrally a polishing unit for polishing an object by means of a polishing agent and a cleaning unit for cleaning the polished object. The polishing unit and the cleaning unit have means for isolating the internal atmosphere from the external atmosphere and the cleaning unit has a means for cleaning the polished object by bringing hot pure water or steam of pure water into contact with the polished object. With a cleaning method hot pure water is brought into contact with the polished object without drying it after having been polished by such a polishing apparatus.

    摘要: In order to reclaim defective articles, wafers carried in from a loading unit are transported to a wafer stocker unit, a polishing unit, a pre-rinsing unit, a rinsing unit, a spin dehydrating unit and a drying unit in the named order, and in a defect inspecting device, defective articles are sorted and the remainder are taken out of an unloading unit as products. The defective articles are classified in a discriminating device in conformity with the kinds of defects and are returned to the polishing unit, the rinsing unit or the drying unit through a return duct.

    摘要: A chemical mechanical polishing apparatus and method can polish a surface of an object very precisely at a high speed irrespective of the presence of a local defect on the surface to be polished. By using a multiplex ring-shaped polishing pad, an effective surface to be polished is increased, and very precise and uniform polishing can be performed at a high speed. By using a plurality of polishing pads, having different diameters smaller than the diameter of the surface to be polished, provided with an interval on the same revolution radius on a revolution table, or by using a plurality of polishing pads, having the same diameter smaller than the diameter of the surface to be polished, provided at positions having different revolution radii on a revolution table, very precise and uniform polishing can be performed.
