Abstract:
A chemical mechanical polishing apparatus includes a plate on which a substrate is received, and a movable polishing pad support and coupled polishing pad which move across the substrate and orbit a local region of the substrate during polishing operation. The load of the pad against the substrate, the revolution rate of the pad, and the size, shape, and composition of the pad, may be varied to control the rate of material removed by the pad.
