Embodiments described herein relate to removing material from a substrate. More particularly, the embodiments described herein relate to polishing or planarizing a substrate by a chemical mechanical polishing process. In one embodiment, a method of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of a substrate is provided. The method comprises exposing a substrate having a conductive material layer formed thereon to a polishing solution comprising phosphoric acid, one or more chelating agents, one or more corrosion inhibitors, and one or more oxidizers, forming a passivation layer on the conductive material layer, providing relative motion between the substrate and a polishing pad and removing at least a portion of the passivation layer to expose a portion of the underlying conductive material layer, and removing a portion of the exposed conductive material layer.
摘要:
A method of controlling polishing includes polishing a first substrate having an overlying layer on an underlying layer or layer structure. During polishing, the substrate is monitored with an in-situ monitoring system to generate a sequence of measurements. The measurements are sorted into groups, each group associated with a different zone of a plurality of zones on the substrate. For each zone, a time at which the overlying layer is cleared is determined based on the measurements from the associated group. At least one second adjusted polishing pressure for at least zone is calculated based on a pressure applied in the at least one zone during polishing the substrate, the time for the at least one zone, and the time for another zone. A second substrate is polished using the at least one adjusted polishing pressure.

A method of controlling polishing includes storing a desired ratio representing a ratio for a clearance time of a first zone of a substrate to a clearance time of a second zone of the substrate. During polishing of a first substrate, an overlying layer is monitored, a sequence of measurements is generated, and the measurements are sorted a first group associated with the first zone of the substrate and a second group associated with the second zone on the substrate. A first time and a second time at which the overlying layer is cleared is determined based on the measurements from the first group and the second group, respectively. At least one adjusted polishing pressure is calculated for the first zone based on a first pressure applied in the first zone during polishing the first substrate, the first time, the second time, and the desired ratio.
