    摘要: A method and apparatus for conditioning a polishing pad are described. The method includes steps of providing a chemical mechanical polishing apparatus having a polishing region and a conditioning region; cycling a polishing member through the apparatus; contacting the polishing member in the conditioning region with a conditioning member; and conditioning the polishing member. The apparatus includes an end effector adapted to receive a conditioning member, the end effector being attached to an arm that can be moved horizontally and vertically, and a strain gauge that monitors the force applied to a polishing member.

    摘要: The present invention provides exemplary methods, systems and apparatus that provide improved substrate characteristics after grinding operations by avoiding or reducing overgrind damage to the wafers. In one embodiment, a grinding apparatus (100) includes a first spindle (110) having an eccentric-shaped abrasive matrix (112) coupled thereto and a second spindle (116) adapted to hold a substrate (118) to be ground. The second spindle is offset from said first spindle such that the abrasive matrix passes through the substrate surface center (134) for only a portion of the time during grinding operations.

    摘要: A grinding machine wherein coarse and fine grind wheels are mounted to a single rotating spindle. A multiple grind wheel mount is attached to the lower portion of the rotating spindle, the coarse and fine wheels being supported by the wheel mount, the wheel mount containing the mechanism for moving the inner coarse wheel down relative to the stationary outer fine wheel.

    摘要: A cleaning device for use in a semiconductor processing. The device comprises a substrate supporter for supporting a substrate to be cleaned, a scrub pad mounting plate, and a chuck coupling to the substrate supporter and the scrub pad mounting plate. The chuck is configured to move the substrate supporter and the scrub pad mounting plate. The device further comprises a scrub pad mountable to and moveable from the scrub pad mounting plate. The scrub pad, when mounted to the scrub pad mounting plate, is higher than the substrate when mounted on the substrate supporter. The scrub pad mounting plate and the substrate supporter can both be coupled to the chuck so that the chuck moves both the scrub pad mounting plate and the substrate supporter in one action.
