    摘要： A chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) system and method includes pumping polishing slurry from a CMP apparatus through a sampling tube to an endpoint detection apparatus during a polishing operation, and flushing the sampling tube while a polishing operation is not in progress. The flushing of the sampling tube is commenced in accordance with a control signal from the endpoint detection apparatus terminating the polishing operation; the flushing is terminated in accordance with a starting signal to the CMP apparatus. The pump, which pumps a sample of slurry into the endpoint detection apparatus, continuously pumps slurry and/or water. Clogging of the slurry sampling tube is thus eliminated, thereby ensuring robust operation of the CMP apparatus. Contamination of the sampling tube is also avoided, so that the system may reliably provide sensitive endpoint detection and process control, even when a film of low pattern density is polished.

    摘要： A method is described for noise reduction in a CMP endpoint detection system employing torque measurement. The torque signals are acquired using an adjustable sampling rate and sample size, and averaged using a moving array of adjustable size. By introducing these three adjustable quantities in the torque-based endpoint control algorithm and properly setting their values in the endpoint detection recipe, periodic noise associated with carrier rotation and carrier oscillation can be effectively removed. This in turn permits reliable, closed-loop control of the CMP process.

    摘要： A method is provided for detecting the endpoint of a film removal process such as chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP). The process uses a device having a shaft, and friction in the film removal causes torque on the shaft. Two axially displaced reflecting portions are provided on the shaft. Light reflected from these portions generates first and second reflected signals, respectively. A phase difference between the reflected signals is detected, and an output signal is generated in accordance therewith. A change in the output signal indicates a change in deformation of the shaft resulting from change in the torque, thereby indicating the endpoint of the film removal process.
