| 20080318495 | CMP APPARATUSES WITH POLISHING ASSEMBLIES THAT PROVIDE FOR THE PASSIVE REMOVAL OF SLURRY - Chemical mechanical planarization apparatuses with polishing assemblies that provide for the passive removal of slurry are provided. In accordance with an embodiment, a work piece polishing assembly comprises a polishing pad comprising a polishing surface and an exhaust aperture that extends through the polishing pad from the polishing surface and is configured to receive a slurry from the polishing surface. An underlying member is disposed underlying the polishing pad and comprises a peripheral surface. The underlying member comprises a channel that is in fluid communication with the aperture and that opens at the peripheral surface of the underlying member. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20090081932 | CHEMICAL MECHANICAL POLISHING ASSEMBLY WITH ALTERED POLISHING PAD TOPOGRAPHICAL COMPONENTS - A chemical-mechanical polishing apparatus is provided that creates a uniform kinematical pattern on the surface of a wafer being polished. The apparatus may have a polishing pad comprising a polishing pad surface having a center point that lies within an axis of motion for the polishing pad and a plurality of grooves entrenched in the polishing pad surface and defining a pattern of shapes. The pattern has an axis of symmetry that is offset from the polishing pad surface center point. The apparatus may be operated in a manner such that the kinematics of the CMP process are uniform across the surface of the wafer. | 03-26-2009 |
