    摘要: The present invention relates to a substrate holding apparatus for holding a substrate to be polished and pressing the substrate against a polishing surface. The substrate holding apparatus comprises a top ring body for holding a substrate, an elastic pad for being brought into contact with the substrate, and a support member for supporting the elastic pad. The substrate holding apparatus further comprises a contact member mounted on a lower surface of the support member and disposed in a space formed by the elastic pad and the support member. The contact member has an elastic membrane for being brought into contact with the elastic pad. A first pressure chamber is defined in the contact member, and a second pressure chamber is defined outside of the contact member. The substrate holding apparatus further comprises a fluid source for independently supplying a fluid into, or creating a vacuum in, the first pressure chamber and the second pressure chamber.

    摘要: There is disclosed a polishing apparatus comprising: a polishing table having a first axis and a counterweight provided on the polishing table. The polishing table is adapted to be subjected to a circular orbital motion in which the first axis of the polishing table is rotated about an orbit center axis while the orientation of the polishing table is kept substantially constant. The counterweight cancels a centrifugal force generated by the circular orbital motion of the polishing table.

    摘要: A carrier device is adapted for use in a polishing apparatus with a turntable having a polishing surface. The carrier device includes a carrier for carrying an article to be polished and a control device operatively associated with the carrier. The control device includes an actuator operable to cause the carrier to urge the article against the polishing surace of the turntable to polish the article, a sensor operatively associated with the actuator and operable to sense a pressure as applied to the article when the article is urged against the polishing surface of the turntable and a control unit operatively associated with the actuator and the sensor so as to monitor the pressure during a polishing operation. The control unit is operable to control operation of the actuator in response to the pressure as monitored so as to keep the pressure at a target level and halt the polishing operation when the pressure is deviated from a predetermined range over a predetermined period of time.
