摘要: A workpiece such as a semiconductor wafer is supported on a top ring and polished by an abrasive cloth on a turntable while the top ring is being pressed against the turntable and the turntable and the top ring are being rotated. The top ring is coupled to a top ring drive shaft, coupled to a pressure cylinder for pressing the top ring, and to a motor for rotating the top ring. A spherical bearing is interposed between the top ring and the top ring drive shaft for allowing the top ring to align with the upper surface of the moving turntable. A torque transmitting mechanism is operatively coupled between the top ring and the top ring drive shaft for rotating the top ring in synchronization with the top ring drive shaft.

摘要: A turntable with an abrasive cloth mounted thereon and a top ring positioned above the turntable are independently rotatably provided. The top ring holds a workpiece to be polished and presses the workpiece against the abrasive cloth. The turntable and the top ring are rotated to polish the surface of the workpiece to a flat mirror finish on the abrasive cloth. A rotatable brush pressed against the abrasive cloth is rotated about an axis substantially perpendicularly to the plane of the abrasive cloth, and oscillated substantially radially between radially inner and outer positions over the abrasive cloth. A cleaning solution is sprayed from a nozzle onto the abrasive cloth. The turntable has a bank along an outer circumferential edge thereto for preventing a protective solution, which is supplied to the abrasive cloth to keep the abrasive cloth wet and prevent it, from flowing off the turntable when the turntable is stationary.

摘要: A drum-type polishing apparatus for producing a flat mirror polish on an object such as a semiconductor wafer, is capable of three degrees of freedom of movement of a drum member with respect to the wafer. The relative movements can be made, successively or simultaneously, at right angles to an axis of the drum, parallel to the surface of the wafer, as well as at any desired angular orientations. Combined with a follower device to provide automatic compensation for unevenness in pressing pressure applied to the wafer during polishing, the polishing apparatus offers outstanding uniformity in polishing quality and high productivity, even for large diameter wafers, with a comparatively modest investment in both facility space and equipment cost.
