摘要:
Abrasive tools and techniques are disclosed that can cut hard, brittle materials to relatively precise dimensions. The tools, which can include a hybrid bond of metal or metal alloy and a resin matrix together with fine abrasive grits, can be employed, for example, in mirror finish cutting applications, thereby enabling ‘1×’ or ‘single-pass’ multi-function abrasive processes. The specific selection of resin and metal or metal alloy types is such that the tool is sufficiently brittle for the purpose of manufacture and durability, but ductile enough to withstand the grinding and handling stresses (an exemplary hybrid bond includes bronze and polyimide). Numerous tool types and applications will be apparent in light of this disclosure, including abrasive products for electronic device manufacturing such as thin 1A8 blades (single blade or multi-blade configuration).

An abrasive tool including a CMP pad conditioner having a substrate including a first major surface, a second major surface opposite the first major surface, and a side surface extending between the first major surface and the second major, wherein a first layer of abrasive grains is attached to the first major surface and a second layer of abrasive grains is attached to the second major surface. The conditioner further includes a first sealing member extending in a peripheral direction along a portion of the side surface of the substrate.

摘要:
Tools for conditioning chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) pads comprise a substrate with abrasive particles coupled to at least one surface. The tools can have various particle and bond configurations. For instance, abrasive particles may be bonded (e.g., brazed or other metal bond technique) to one side, or to front and back sides. Alternatively, abrasive particles are bonded to a front side, and filler particles coupled to a back side. The abrasive particles can form a pattern (e.g., hexagonal) and have particle sizes that are sufficiently small to penetrate pores of a CMP pad during conditioning, leading to fewer defects on wafers polished with the conditioned CMP pad. Grain bonding can be accomplished using brazing films, although other metal bonds may be used as well. Also, balanced bond material (e.g., braze on both sides) allows for low out-of-flatness value.
摘要:
A study of several key conditioner design parameters has been conducted. The purpose was to improve conditioner performance by considering factors such as wafer defects, pad life, and conditioner life. For this study, several key conditioner design parameters such as diamond type, diamond size, diamond shape, diamond concentration and distribution, were selected to determine their effect on CMP performance and process stability. Experimental validations were conducted. Conditioner specifications were matched to each specific CMP environment (intended application) in order to improve process stability and CMP performance particularly for emerging technology nodes. Several conditioner designs were developed and run successfully in the field. Significant planarity improvement for a 300 mm CMP process was achieved in accordance with one embodiment, and an increase of pad life and wafer polish rate was simultaneously achieved with another embodiment.
