    摘要: A tool and methods of removing films from bevel regions of wafers are disclosed. The bevel film removal tool includes an inner motor nested within an outer motor and a bevel brush secured to the outer motor. The bevel brush is adjustable radially outward to allow the wafer to be inserted in the bevel brush and to be secured to the inner motor. The bevel brush is adjustable radially inward to engage one or more sections of the bevel brush and to bring the bevel brush in contact with a bevel region of the wafer. Once engaged, a solution may be dispensed at the engaged sections of the bevel brush and the inner motor and the outer motor may be rotated such that the bevel brush is rotated against the wafer such that the bevel films of the wafer are both chemically and mechanically removed.

    摘要: Provided herein are polishing pads in which microcapsules that include a polymer material and are dispersed, as well as methods of making and using the same. Such microcapsules are configured to break open (e.g., when the polishing pad is damaged during the dressing process), which releases the polymer material. When contacted with ultraviolet light the polymer material at least partially cures, healing the damage to the polishing pad. Such polishing pads have a longer lifetime and a more stable remove rate when compared to standard polishing pads.
