    摘要: A method and apparatus for conditioning a polishing pad is described. The method includes steps of moving a cylindrical roller having an abrasive substance affixed to it against a moving polishing pad. The roller may be passively rotated by contact with the polishing pad, or actively reciprocated, while maintaining a pressure against the polishing pad. The apparatus includes a cylindrical roller attached to one or more pressure application devices mechanically connected to the roller.

    摘要: Generally, a method and apparatus for retaining polishing material is provided. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a platen having a top surface, a plurality of channels and one or more vacuum ports. The top surface is adapted to support the polishing material. The plurality of channels are formed in a polishing area of the top surface. The vacuum ports are disposed in the platen and at least one port is in communication with at least one of the channels. Upon application of a vacuum to the ports, the channels remove fluids under the polishing material while securing the polishing material to the top surface.
